Default Most HP Fox Body 5.0 ?

whats the most horsepower/torque you can get out of a stock 302 fox using aftermarket parts .. but without using super chargers or nos or anything like that ?

I'm just guessing, but the Stock Block will probably take 400-450HP?

yes, easily - with the use of better heads along with all other supporting mods (cam, intake, exhaust, etc etc etc)
