  • Gonna be a tuff sell considering shipping from Australia.

    I am surprised that someone in Australia has not worked a deal with the seller by now. As I recall, this has been on the market around one year already.

  • I guess there just isn't enough demand for these engines. I have basically the same thing, a .030 over 5-bolt HiPo engine (minus HiPo rods), for sale $1000 cheaper than that one and have had almost no interest in it. Mine has forged pistons and includes the flywheel.

    I actually have a couple of these myself sans flywheel but with Hipo rods. I have not been actually trying to sell mine, though.

  • Here is an Ebay auction for a used 5 bolt Hipo engine by Ebay member "Coin Collectors Corner" with a Buy-It-Now of $9,995.00:

    1965 High Performance 289 SBF Engine

    I965 HIPO motor for sale, date code 1964
    This is the real deal 271HP motor
    Correct HIPO heads with solid lifters
    Correct Hipo water pump
    Correct Hipo fuel pump
    Correct HIPO harmonic balancer.
    Correct 4bbl intake
    Correct dual distributor
    Correct large flywheel
    Vintage MT valve covers
    Original oil pan
    Comes with an additional chrome oil pan

    I could not find any numbers on the block. The owner of the original 1965 HIPO Mustang told me that his block does not have numbers on it as well, and some of these 1964 built blocks did not have numbers on them.
    Motor turns freely and was out of a running Mustang. It has been sitting in storage for many years.

    I also comes with a top loader 4spd gearbox, bellhousing assy, and original shifter and linkage.

    I purchased this motor from a gentleman that purchased this motor for a spare motor for his 101% original HIPO 1965 Mustang. (shown in photo) Photos are to show the originality of a HIPO motor in the car with correct harmonic balancer, fuel pump, water pump etc. to compare it to motor for sale.

    I was originally going to have the motor rebuilt and install it in my RCR 40 but decided to go in a different direction and purchased a 351 stroked to 427 EFI motor from Prestige Motorsports. I am asking $9,995 for the motor.

    Thank you for viewing my auction!

  • I guess that the transmission could pass as a toploader if you turned it on its side to remove the side cover. Other than that, it is a T10. :) The transmission has a Fairlane tail housing making the transmission longer than a Mustang and the shifter mounts further forward than the Mustang position. There was no special Hipo 289 pump in 1964 and most likely this pump is for a Fairlane and not a Mustang as they are different at the inlet and outlet clocking.
