XA Info from previous owner - car was in storage from 2006 - 2012 with 20, 000 miles on the engine rebuild at that time when I acquired it. I have done less than 5, 000 kms in it. The car started its life as a Cosmic blue 1973 Ford XA Fairmont GS with a 302 Cleveland V8 and T bar auto (according to build codes) . It had a borg warner 4 spd manual when acquired.The engine was then stroked and modified into a 350hp 351 capable of 17mpg on the highway. The drive train has also been upgraded with a toploader and a 9” diffEngineThe engine was completely rebuilt . I chose him to rebuild the motor as he has the reputation for building the strongest naturally aspirated motors for competition drag racing. Off the top off the top of my head I think this motor has only done about 20, 000 miles. After the rebuild the engine was measured on the dyno at 350hp at 5, 600rpm and 360 lb/ft. First runs had the car sucking 12mpg on the highway. But a slight leaning of the jets (The original jets should still be in the ashtray), an electronic dizzy and surprisingly enough a better gearbox has got it running at about 17mpg on the highway. The engine modifications include:Cleveland motor stroked from 302 to 351Ported 2V heads with 4V intake valves. Exhaust valves left at 2V as this only knocks about 5hp off top end power but gives dramatically more low down tractable torque making the motor more streetable and actually giving better ¼ mile timeHardened valve seats to run unleaded.etc
