[QUOTE="rezcobra, post: 1711229, member: 6439"] McQueen liked hp like any car buff. And as you mentioned the 67 GT (that was my very first car in 1973) only came with a 390 as the ultimate engine. McQueen loved the Mustang GT's body but didn't care for the lackluster 390, thus the only alternative for some real nasty hp was the Chevy big block. He had his "personal" GT, not the car in the movie, converted to a Chevy drivetrain. Because of the 390's lack of performance the 1968 Mustang GT came available with a 428 with super Cobra Jet heads. That car was top dog in the 1320 back then with a 4 speed top loader and 3:90 gearing. [/QUOTE]
