It was a really good engine in that truck as far as pulling with a 1/2 ton 4x4. The Lightning trucks of the day had the GT40 heads I think, but I never drove one for comparison.
I also have the parts for a 69 290HP 351W, but feel its too high a factor to start out with in S/SS unless you really want to do it.
The Lightnings those years had the same motor as the Cobra R except the trucks had the tublar GT40 intake and the Cobra had the cast intake. Yes same F3 GT40 heads.
