Hello, my granddad just gave me his 1966 Mustang and its a L6.. I wanted to convert it to a small block v8 but after reading about the process I decided I didn't want too. I want to maintain the L6 but I want to put some power behind it. I been looking up google for rebuild kits and other sort of performance question. Does anyone know what kind of performance mods I can get for the L6 so im not lugging around. I have found that I will be getting a header and exhaust. but other than that I really don't know what else I can do.

A V8 swap would do much more than any sort of modification to the L6...You would just be throwing money away trying to make that L6 run. Even if you were able to raise the HP by 20%, which is most likely a fairytale, you would still be making under 150HP......

I would do that.. but like I said I don't want too after reading about what to do, I don't have that kind of time. I also don't want to sell the car and buy one with a v8 sense my granddad bought it off the lot.
