FYI: '02 z-28 ran a 12.87 et, bone stock. 3rd pass, and never dragged before. 1st pass was a 13.5 I think, and 4th was like 12.9. And I doubt you will see too many stock F-bodies. 5.0s are alright, but again, most have been "massaged" as some would say. Oh and the z-28 was an auto, factory tires as well. So my goal later in life is to have a stroked 351w, with roughly 400-500hp. I would indeed recommend a 302 over 305 or any GM, just due to ease of use on a Mav/Comet, just like these other guys have said.
I've seen factory mustangs the same year as that run the same times or better.. They were closely matched cars from what ive seen
No way a bone stock 2002 Mustang GT could run that fast ... they were only like 260 HP that year ... I think the 2002 Cobras were 320HP so maybe a Cobra ... the Z28 was 310 HP ...
I apologize, I didnt see the 02 part. I was thinking of earlier ones. But at that the Cobra is the "z-28" in ford terms correct?
seems like not enough factors in your question perform how? In a straight line? cuz new IRS suspension sucks when it comes to a straight line... too much power no traction! but newer cars come with some nice horse power these days and handle 10xs better or should i say MORE better... lol! btw stock 302s in mavericks are dogs!
I am probly be getting a 5.0 H.O. out of a 85' mustang and was wondering what kind of power they have?
225hp @ old hp rating too. back then i thought that was alot of horse power.. lol! SUVs have like 300 now... lol!
How much hp did tha 289 outta '67 Stang wit a 3speed have and how much power did tha 302 mavericks have?
Whats tha difference between a '89 Lincoln town car's 5.0 and a regular 5.0. Ive heard sumtin bout a different firing order. Sorry im askin so many questions, im seriously gonna try to buy this Maverick and im tryin to find a V-8 to toss in.
Prob nothing different in the 2 motors a 302 is a 302 unless its a H.O or other special motor series The base 302s usually were around the same HP and such
I couldn't honestly tell you there. Depends if either have sat forever and a day. Also, if your looking to just bolt it in and go. The 89 lincold you can't use the intake on it etc due to it being computerized. Im not sure what the 289s in the stangs put out, but if its just your basic 289 then Im sure the 302 out of the Lincoln will have more power (proboally not a TON more but more)
