i have a 1996 mustang cobra with the mods in my signature, i have about 160k on the odometer, estimate of how much power i'd be pushin now. stock with 305, any ideas?

You want rwhp or fly-wheel hp?

Why not just go put it on a dyno to find out for sure.

the closest dyno to me is about 4/5 hours away and cost $350. gotta get my 4.10's installed this weekend, so i wont' have the time anyway, and rwhp. i will be up there eventually, don't worry.

i'd estimate somewhere around the 280-290 area. this is just an estimation though...your guess is as good as mine.

Most likely will be below 280. That a lot of miles. Just not going to be like a new motor. Have you took it down a track yet? Need some time. That could help tell what hp you have.

I'm with you on this one. 160k is alot of wear and tear.

260 to 270

On old engines, maybe, but on new ones, not so much. I have cracked open engines with 170K that look like new on the insides. Not a bit of wear on the cylinder walls. All depends on how it was maintained, but I doubt that you would loose more than 2-5% power from a 50K mile engine to a 150K mile engine.

yeah i've done the 1/8th mile, running 9.0

that was with the 3.73's, and also i don't know the exact mileage, speedo is about 7off for a good year now.
