You want a fuel sipping mustang?
1) Find one of the very rare 1969 Mustang E's. 200 cid I6 with a trans
set up for fuel economy.
2) Mustang ii 4 cylinder.
3) 1979-1993 4 cylinder.
Don't hack up a perfectly good '65.
If you really want a '65 with better fuel economy, buy a '65 with 170 or
200 cid I6.
