289 HIPO FOR SALE SERIAL NUMBER
The earliest known Mustang with a “K” serial number is 5F07K100148, a Dearborn pre-production unit built specifically for Henry Ford II prior to the start of mass production at Dearborn on 9 March 1964. The 289 HiPo K-code engine was an expensive option and its popularity declined sharply after the introduction of the 390 ci and 428 ci big-block engines in the Mustang and Fairlane, which offered similar power (at the expense of greater weight) but at much lower cost.Īpproximately 13,000 289 Hi Po K-code engines were built between March 1963 and June 1967, less than 1% of the 1.8 million Mustangs produced over the same period.
The 289 HiPo with a single Autolite 4100 4-barrel carburetor was rated at 271 bhp (202 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 423 Nm at 3,400 rpm. All this to ensure reliability at high rpm. Some of the more significant improvements include a standard block selected without defect, thicker main bearing caps and crankshaft damper/balancer, larger diameter rod bolts, a crankshaft made of 80% nodular cast iron instead of the usual 40%, The increased external front counterweight was split between the crankshaft damper and an additional counterweight adjacent to the front main journal (all designed to reduce the “bending moment” of the crankshaft at high rpm). The water pump, fuel pump and alternator/generator pulleys were modified, with an extra spring and larger diameter, to help handle the higher engine speeds.

It featured a mechanical camshaft with flat tappets, 10.5:1 compression, a two-point distributor, smaller combustion chamber heads with molded spring cups and screw-in studs, low-restriction exhaust manifolds, and a larger 595 CFM manual choke carburetor (the standard 289-4V was 480 CFM). This 289 HiPo engine was designed to increase performance and reliability at high rpm over the standard 289ci.
