1965 Mustang Suspension Rebuild?

I‘m looking to redo my 1965 mustang‘s suspension. The only thing is that I have a 351 Windsor engine in it. Can someone tell me if it is necessary to get a heavier duty suspension system with my engine being larger than normal? Or is it ok to just go stock?

Answer:

go with the heavier your car is light you will be happier in the long end i had a 68 calf .special 428 cobra jet refitted with a heavy duty suspension handled like a dream
you can spray axe on yourself and light and it doesn't hurt until the axe burns off. i would not recommend lighting yourself on fire using any method.
If it came with a v8, then no. If it came with a 6 cyl , then yes you should replace the front springs for the v8 model. Also if it was a 6 you may want to change the rear end as the gearing was a bit higher on the 6.
