The car has an S code engine which should be the 390. I am confused because I recently bought a mustang repair manual and the picture of the 390 in the book looks nothing like the engine in the car. It is a 67 gt.

 

The pic isn't working for me. It appears to be HUGE, and I can only see the top inch or so.

 

sorry im trying to figure it out

 

ok this should work

 

and

 

What makes you think it's not a 390? Looks like one to me...

 

Yup.

 

That is an FE block,

which means the engine could be a 352, 390, 410, 428... etc. etc.

There is even a "352" cast on the front of the block even if it is a 390,

the best way to be sure is find the casting numbers (on bottom of block) and de-code them.

There is also a small aluminum tag (at least from the factory) between the ignition coil and intake, that has the displacement stamped on it as well.

 

looks like a 390 to me

 

390.......unlucky for you

ok thanks, the one in the book had a duel belt for the fan, and the power steering pump was on the passenger side of the motor.
Also was the clutch fan an option?

 

Definitely an FE - not reason to believe that it's not a 390. A clutch fan could be standard or could have been added/changed - not really an indicator of anything one way or another. If you saw a picture with a passenger side PS pump, I'd tend to think the editor "flipped" the negative - they are always on the driver's side...

 

Also what type of gas should it be run on, do I need an additive for the gas?

 

I have a 390 in my truck. The block looks the same. But my Heads are a little bigger then the ones in that pic. I'm pretty sure my heads are stock. But there prob different Engines. Since mine is in a F-100. 1976.
