Hey everyone I'm just trying to figure out how much wheel hp my 89 5.0 puts down without trying to dyno the car. Going to dyno next month but just trying to see some numbers so im not totally surprised by how much power my car lacks. I have a 302cid motor with 4000 miles all forged internals pistons, crankshaft, 1.6 rockers, 9:1 Compression for boost later on etc. I have powerhouse heads ported and polished (they flow like afr 185's exactly just cast iron), An E cam, Underdrive pulleys, shorty headers, h pipe(catless) flowmaster 40's(oldschool ones) bbk cai, full msd setup, short belt (runs without ac), ported cobra upper and lower intake, finolic intake spacer, 24lb injectors and 76mm Maf, 70mm Throttle body and walbro fuel pump . I think that's it.

Sorry about that, i wasn't sure where to post this is my first one. And thanks for the guess. I'll come back with dyno sheets and post them in the correct place. Sorry mods!

that's okay, but next time read the sticky's above, they have the answer to the question

ctgreddy

I'm gonna guess 280whp. I don't see getting 300whp out of it with 9:1 compression and an ecam.
