PARTS INCLUDED:

1986-93 5.0L HO Mustang Production Engine Assembly

GENERAL INFORMATION:

This engine assembly is built with the Production 5.0L crankshaft, rods and hypereutectic pistons, resulting in a 50 oz.-in.
unbalance factor. The damper and flywheel/flexplate included are compatible with this balance specification. The damper
and flywheel/flexplate combination for your particular application may need to be re-balanced or modified for compatibility.
(See #1 and 2 for more details on balance).

Although this engine is intended to be a direct replacement for 1979-93 5.0L Mustang, it can be adapted to any 289/302
situation. Consult your Ford Racing dealer or call the Ford Racing Tech “Hot Line” @ [phone] for advice regarding
your specific application.

ACCESSORY COMPONENTS:

1.

Front Accessory Drive

Must be selected for your particular application. This engine is equipped with a short serpentine reverse rotation
water pump, timing cover and damper with an unbalance factor of 50 oz.-in. designed to be used with 1979-93
Mustang front accessory drive components. If your application calls for the use of later model short serpentine
or “V” belt components, consult the additional parts list for help.

2.

Transmission

A. Engines designed for use with Manual Transmissions are shipped with a 157-tooth (13-1/4" dia.) flywheel

with a 50 oz.-in. unbalance factor.

B. Engines for use with Automatic Transmissions with a 164-tooth (14-1/4" dia.) flexplate with a 50 oz.-in.

unbalance factor use. These flexplates fit AOD or C-4 transmission applications. For C-4 transmission
applications with a 157-tooth (13 ¼" dia.) flexplate with a 50 oz.-in. unbalance factor, use Ford Racing part M­6375-E302. The supplied flexplate will not fit C-6 applications. For use with a C-6 the flexplate needs to be
removed and replaced with Ford Racing part M-6375-J302.
