Hooniverse Weekend V.I.S.I.T Edition: A 1972 Mustang Mach I

Is a Mustang Mach I worthy of a V.I.S.I.T. Posting? I’m not sure, so I put the question to the readers, while I go on to describe what is under the hood of this beast. The car seems to be set up to tackle the drag strip, based on the information from the placard left on the dash. The engine has been built with some of the best in performance enhancing parts available, and started as a 351 CID Cleveland, only now displacing 357 Cubic Inches. New forged ultra light pistons were installed, as were reconditioned connecting rods, a roller timing chain, a high volume Melling Oil Pump, a Moroso front sump oil pan, an Iskendarian hydraulic camshaft, a Roller Rocker Arm conversion, new double valve springs and custom length pushrods, new 351 cylinder heads with over sized stainless-steel valves, Offenhauser high rise polished aluminum intake manifold, Holley Avenger Series 4 BBL Carburetor, Carter high volume fuel pump, Mallory distributor with Promaster coil, and a set of Hedman Hustler Series headers. If that sounds like a shopping list you would find on-line at Jeg’s, I have to agree. The transmission is a Ford FMX built to street/strip specifications by H & H Transmission with a 2500 stall torque converter. The rear is a 9″ Ford with 3.73 gears, and positraction. It seems that the previous owner had to give up this car to a pawn broker, as its for sale by the Eagles Nest Pawn Shop. How much is it? I didn’t even bother to ask, since it is probably overpriced. If you want to contact the shop, by all means do so. So the question remains, is this Mach I worthy of a V.I.S.I.T. Posting? Comment away. Image source: UDMan
