Hate to use a cliche, but it depends...

Block...I believe these blocks are quite different with some early blocks being manu'd in Mexico which had a higher content of a desirable metal combo (sorry can't be more specific)...these were early years...

Heads...The 69 heads might work on an 87, if water passages and etc. are the same, as I did put 68 302 heads (once the smog bump here in CA was ground down to the point of removal) on a 65 .030 block, the resultant compression was fine for pump gas (91 octane) and I think was just under 9:5to1...

Intake: of the 69 was carbed, and the last year for CA carbs I believe was 85 gt, in 86-88, the early computer years had a speed density system, which was very tempermental, and then they switched to mass air in 89, with CA getting mass air in 88 (been awhile)...

Legality: (here in Nazifornia) you would only want to do this is they will pass the visual inspection, in addition to the dyno and sniffer, and if you already own a pair or have a very limited budget...consider some used alum heads for that year which are CARB approved (here in CA)...when I was building my 65 mustang fb, that was the last year for a smog free life (66 had to pass smog)...can you imagine all the muscle cars that you couldn't touch...that has now changed to cars of pre 76...

I hope this helps a little as we couldn't touch 87's mustangs much back in the day...now we can and we would do exhaust, polishing intake ports, alum heads, intake, fuel injection, and conversion from speed density to mass air, then of course, GEARING (bang for buck)
