I agree with mstanton about the 289 not coming out until '65.
If you wanted an 8 on the '64 1/2 mustangs, comet, or falcons, you got the 260.

My beloved Comet had the 260- what a sweet little engine. Not fast off the line, but great overall performer.

I remember on senior skip-day I raced one of my closest friends who had a '68 or '69 Skylark with a 350. He left me in the dust, but the Comet didn't give up, kept getting closer and closer, then finally passed him at 117 mph. I still remember his face as I passed- priceless!
