I just got back from the movie. I would have to say it was pretty decent. The story line was alot better then the last two.

They never put a 430 in a Mustang and I would be real surprised if anyone would butcher a 429 cj for a project like that.

Odd's are it was a six cylinder or 289 car and even more likely a near wreck.

That and in the movie it was only a rolling chassis his old man found it didnt have a motor in it, before thay put the skyline engine in.

watched a progrum on the movie and they said that 3 of the stunt cars had 430's in them, but i know as well as any blue blooded ford fan that there is no 430.. a 429, a 390, a 289 and i think a 230 inline 6 were the ops... the stunt cars were set up for driftin but still pulled low 14s in the 1/4 so you know they were runnin a big block(even with mad wheel spin 2 second 60 foots a big block will pull its weight).

Posted on the first page: http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Fe ... eId=115632

they put 430's into all the stangs.

Inside Line ultimately tested three of the surviving Ford Mustangs — the almost pristine car with the Nissan six and two equipped with 430-cubic-inch Ford Windsor V8s and four-speed "Toploader" manual transmissions. One of the V8 drift cars was clean and ready for show duty, while the other had been battered in every way, but ran strong.

^^^^that's wat i was gonna say earlier josh....

I wqas going to say that it sounded like it could of been a stroked small block, which is a good idea since it woulkd be somewhat light and very powerful, you usually see like 427 listed as the maximum displacement for a stroked 351, must of been bored slightly too?
