Default New member from new york, got some questions

hey everyone, just picked up a 78 mustang 2 , it has a 302 in it from an 82, its got a crane cam and higher compression pistons and a Holley 650, im not sure what it has for rear end, im assuming stock mustang 2 rear end. but the guy built it from ground up needs a paint job. but i was just wondering what kind of hp and torque am i looking at with those mods(as i dont have a dyno readily available) thanks

without knowing the actual compression ratio, the specs of the cam, the intake, etc etc its really hard to give you a number. i'll take a random guess and say probably 250 - 275 @ the flywheel.
