Default Re: Has anyone put a 4.6 in a 1967 mustang

Well you could put in another POS vintage (pinto!) front suspension, that loads the front uni body in ways completely outside the original design intentions.
LMAO....

The endless debate between the OEM and MII suspension is starting to kick off again. I'm not going to argue with anyone, but the aftermarket MII "style" suspensions have improved and been re-engineered to the point that they cannot be compared to the Pinto design. The Pinto didn't have tubular UCA/LCA's and it still used strut rods.... whatever, I'm not going to argue the point.

To illustrate an earlier suggestion for triangulating the front end, I chose to take the easy way out and run supports on the inside of the fender aprons. My situation is a little different as the whole car rides on a one-piece 2x3" boxed frame.
