1980 Mustang Engine

The 1980 Mustang came with four engine options. A 4, 6, and 8-cylinder and also a turbo-4. No matter which option you selected, there are modifications to improve your performance. If you're in desperate need of horsepower though, replacing your entire setup with a crate engine may be your best option.

Modern crate engines give you the option to drop serious power into your Fox Body. With a Coyote, you can get four times more horsepower than your Mustang came stock with.

There are also parts to accentuate what you've already got under your hood though. A fresh air cleaner can improve your Mustang's performance. With the original overhead valve style engine, you have a lot of options for improvements. Upgrading your carburetor is one such option.

Improving airflow and cooling is an important consideration whether you're swapping in a new engine or improving your existing one. Keeping your engine cool helps it perform better, but also helps keep it in great shape for years to come.

Not the year you are looking for? Check out these years: 1979, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, or 1993 for additional options.
