There's the 66-68 Mustang. early Granadas/Monarchs. There are others though.

Don't get a 170ci,200 much better. Maybe the Mavericks also and Fairmonts??

200 engine introduced in 1964 = used on:

1964/70 Falcon/Comet / 1964/69 Fairlane/Torino / 1965/70 Mustangs / 1979/83 Mustangs/Capri's / 1970/77 Mavericks/Comets / 1975/82 Granada/Monarchs / 1983 LTD's (midsized model) / 1978/83 Fairmont/Zephyr.

From 1964 thru 1972, some of the above including the Maverick/Comets also used 170 engines.

Cars: thru 1979 = The 5th digit in the VIN is the engine code / 1980 and later, the 8th digit.

Passenger car: 200 I-6 VIN engine code: T

(On 1961/67 Econolines, T refers to a 170)
