Jack Roush takes us through the restoration of his original 1974 Don Hardy-built Pro Stock Mustang II. He talks about the old racing days and gives us a great look into the 351 Cleveland race engine.

Those were some of Fords glory days, thanks to G&R, Dyno,& Glidden! I seen the one picture where their car had the #1! Brings back so many great memories, watching all these great legends racing at the US NATIONALS. Year after year,it was the Fords winning P/S there, I'm 68 now & I'd give anything to see competitive Fords back!❤😎👍🏆

I had the privilege of watching this car in nhra competition when I was a young man ! The 351 cleveland , brainchild of Jack Roush himself as a Ford engineer !! This, the 351 cleveland engine that Jack designed , listed in the NHRA rulebook for pro stock in that era as having " an unfair horsepower advantage over the small block chevrolet " . " Therefore the clevelands must run at a heavier car weight to allow the chevrolets to compete " Had these cars run even up against the competition , the fords would have won all the races of the small block era !!!!!!!

Jack Roush is the greatest ever. Piston ring package is so critical. I’ve got a 351-Cleveland going into my 86 mustang next after the Windsor. This Cleveland went mid 9’s on a 150 shot at 8300 rpms with factory iron closed chamber heads. Mechanical roller cam with the Parker funnel web intake, and 1000 cfm 4150 Holley.

In 1974 I was a Jr. in H.S. and I bought a repossessed '70 Mustang Mach I with a 351 Cleveland. As a Ford kid I knew a little bit about what I was getting but i didn't know the subtleties of the Mach I options (this was before I came to understand deciphering VIN numbers, etc.). Once me and mine buddy went over it, it appeared to be all OEM and I was happy to discover it was a 4v car with a close ratio top loader. A couple months later my Dad (who was an old Ford guy and a Rocket Engineer out at Cape Canaveral) and I and my best friend pulled the engine with the intention of converting it to a mech cam setup and taking a look inside. Much to my surprise when we pulled the oil pan we saw 4 bolt mains....at that time we all thought perhaps the 4v engines came with 4 bolt mains but I learned later that only the '71 Boss 351 cars came with 4 bolt mains. So I have always figured as my car was a late year car they must have had some 4 bolt blocks lying around and thru happenstance I got one. Anyway when my Dad saw that he decided he'd like to go through the blueprint process. I certainly learned a lot about building "race" engines and performing precision machining. The engine came out the other end with a dyno'd 545 BHP on a single 1150 Holley with mech secondaries, with a single plane Edelbrock intake, hooker headers, a sizable isky mechanical roller cam, mallory dual point ignition and 12.0:1 compression. The car ran very smoothly but required Sunoco 106 octane fuel, which in '74 was still available. I only had the car for just under two years, as I sold it when I went off to Engineering College, but though I have had lots of fast cars since then (I currently own a 2019 Ferrari 488 Spider) that Mach I with the Cleveland is still the car I have the fondest memories of. I never lost a street race and was generally acknowledged as having the fastest car in town.
