The 289 Ford is my favorite engine. This lil girl is simply a beast. The driver did very well indeed. The gear ratios are spaced correctly as the engine stays well within the the Rev range and sounds like a symphony to my ears. Thanks for a great ride along in in a rare and wonderful automobile.

Nice to see it being used as it was intended, instead of sitting in some collection with an owner who can't drive.

Great video Glann. As an owner of an original GT350-H in the states it's great to see it screaming around the track as it should be!

Those early Fast-Back Mustang are IMO one of the BEST Looking Cars ever Produced, certainly for mass production cars. And every Shelby Mustang of that vintage is SUBLIME.✌❤🤗

@@jackpoage5419 The big issue is handling these 1st generation Mustangs. They tend to oversteer. So it isn't the horse power, its the limits of these cars in their handling. Doesn't matter how much HP, they can only push so fast through a turn. And it also depends how much the car raises in acceleration. The shifting of the weight from the front to rear affects the handling too. They aren't a Porsche. lol

Loved that long held shot at the end with the field passing by on the front straight. With no talking or music. Well done.

1965, I was several months away from getting my driver's license. Sitting at the intersection of North Main and Chaparral was a GT 350, low stance, loud side pipes. The car was mildly famous in town, the only GT 350, reportedly driven by the richest kid in town. A few months later at nearby Laguna Seca I watched the GT 350 race the older C1 Corvettes in the B production class. 1969 I'm off at college and visiting my cousin Jim. He had just purchased a 66 GT350 H, the Hertz rent-a-racer, auto trans, black with gold stripes. Loud and fast. I remember these cars well.

Wonder what would happen with a 289 given 1) an inch more of deck height, e.g. 9.2 inch deck height; 2) maximum flow cylinder heads; 3) an updated oiling system, built from the ground up to be dry-sumped; and 4) a valve train designed to hold up at 10,000+ revs.

289 doing what it does best…screaming!

I had one and it owned me. As kids will do, I sold it and went to college to be a professional pilot. Didn’t suit me so I bought a new sportster and rode off the not the sunset. Now years later I figured out that I had what I wanted all along. I bought an 09 fast back 3.0 liter 6cylinder. Acquired two 289 engines with some goodies, and am in the process of rekindling an old flame. Of all the things that I have had that were pretty quick, my mustang was my all time favorite. Thanks for the video. Makes me want to go to the shop right now at 12:15 in the morning and get back at it. There are many beautiful new models on the market but, like the man said, it’s got to talk to you. The way it inhales and exhales is everything. I probably won’t sleep well tonight, but shortly we will be one. At 67 my wife says I’m too old to be chasing dreams. I will just say in response to that , I ain’t running , I’m driving. Never cave to old man thinking. Would rather go out swinging for the bleachers than being bat boy. Hell, I’m worth more If I ride my shovelhead off a cliff than if a pass laying flat of my back. Build it, drive it, enjoy it, that’s the ticket. Looking forward to seeing a lot more of that little GT!

I have a real hi-po in a 67 coupe 4speed with a 9 inch posi with 3:89 gears. I shift at a mere 6200 rpms so as not to blow it up. His motor has to be all after market because the 289/302 blocks can only withstand about 500 hp before they split down the middle.

beautiful content!!

Love,this beast! I use the high rpm’s like this engine with the tall gears in the top loafer. I shift from first to second doing over 110kmh then second to third around 160kmh. It sounds incredible through the 3” Mac exhaust from front to back. I usually see a lot of guys in their little ricer fart cans begin to shit them self just before I launch at over 8000rpm’s from the street lights. Priceless!

Love seeing these great cars used as intended

Excellent video, and like all, I really enjoy a 289 @ high rpm. I would love to see that engine and trans in a Cobra Daytona Coupe. Bob Bondurant's '65 Daytona Coupe with "just" 390 hp was good for 197mph at Le Mans. Imagine this 600hp screamer put in place of the original engine - well over 200 mph!

I've owned 1965s all my life. And I will say you have the suspension dialed in perfect. Comparing it in the race to that Black 1965, you have a much better handling car. When I ran mine at Road Atlanta through the curves, it is 3 gear 100%. for most turns. I see you have a nice tubular set up on the control arms. My set up is original stock parts. Shelby one inch drop, off set Maverick ball joint spindles increasing caster. Biasing my upper control arms rearward 1/8th inch for more caster, 1968 Mustang big block front coils with a 1/3rd coil cut. I almost litterally have no shims in the upper arms to the body, and she sits level allowing for bigger front tires. I did put a Tremec five speed using the original clutch linkage and Zbar. I picked up the two fulcrum holes on the four speed bell housing and transfered the two oles to the Tremec bell housing. Than adding a 5/8th inch alluminuim block for a spacer for the fulcrum to the bell housing. Everyone thinks I have a four speed. I also have a aluminium driveshaft. It looked like you have a panhard bar on the rear end. I wish I could see how you set that up better. I use a Stam Bar rear sway bar with hime joints, which works both as a sway bar and traction bar too. And yes, I would take a 289 over a 302 all day long. I love how you ate the Porsches up. if you can do that, I would't worry about the Corvettes. Mine is still a street car, but it is fun on the occassions that I have taken her on Road Atlanta. You have built a very inpressive machine.

I love that sound

For the record Mate, the Corvettes with a bigger engine in the SCCA B Production Class had NOTHING over the Shelby GT 350s. The Corvettes were actually heavier and despite having IRS vs the Mustang's solid rear axle, didn't actually handle quite as well once Shelby gave them a suspension upgrade. The bigger displacement 327 Corvette just couldn't match the Mustang's overall package. The Shelby Mustang GT 350 won the B Production Class National Championship, soundly beating the Corvette in 1965, 1966 and 1967. Now that is dominance, no matter how you look at it! 🤠🏆 🏁

Awesome sound coming from that GT350. The one I rented over 50 years ago, a Hertz GT350H, didn’t sound quite like that!
