Not really. The 351 is an older engine than the 302 (not 305). It was around since the 60s and there are alllll kinds of performance parts for it. |

Your post is a little ambiguous.....If the 351 is an older engine, how is it that Ford's SVT utilized it? The Ford SVT wasn't around in the 60's was it?....And if you're saying the 351 has more performance parts for it, wouldn't that mean it's the better engine of the two? |

it doesn't necessarily mean better (or worse). They just used an older engine in a newer car...people swap them in all the time. Often the older the engine, the more establised the aftermarket, the cheaper and more available the parts (not necessarily though)
personally, I was just asking about the differences between the two...I don't know much about the Mustang world. |

...pointless to have a "sports car" with no balls.
dude they do 13.8 qtr mile..
with only 225hrs 300trq..So if u say no balls man u probably have no idea how fast they are..I got a ride in one and dame are they fast..Jay had one he told me some crazy stuff about it..They can beat any lil car u are talking about..For one they still use 5.0's in texas..So they rock..The cheapest car for bang for the buck.. |

| ^^^ no no no...sorry if I wasn't clear...I meant the previous and current V6 models have no balls...the old 5.0 are plenty fast and have wicked aftermarket potential. I'd never buy a V6 model...garbage, IMHO. |

No.
Unless this car weighs under 2000lbs, there's not a snowball's chance in hell of this happening.
