[78kingcobra]

I have a 1978 King Cobra Hatchback, It has a 5.0L 302 V8 in it, it is stock I was wondering if anyone could tell me the HP and Torque? I am currentley restoring it. What can I do to get the most bottom end torque from my 302? I plan on installing a 4bbl. Edelbrock carb. Aluminum intaker manifolds, Flowmaster exhaust sys. I want it to have as much American muscle as possible, still looking as much stock as possible. Please help me.

Somewhere around 134 hp stock, basically the same motor used up till '82 in the Fox bodies. Here's a site for you to get some good Mustang II info... http://www.mustangii.net/

140hp from the factory and your major draw back is going to be the heads. All the other items you mentioned will help alot though.
