even with that i still think all the 87-93 stangs that are 5.0s have the same amount of hp and torque and ford lied. Thats my belief and i belive that stock my car has 225 hp and 300 ft lbs from the factory and thats what im gonna start sayin to.

It does.

Well, it's probably more like 220-223 HP and about 295ft lbs of torque at the crank, but close enough.

was it an auto?

mileage+options take away from rear wheel hp

some1 on here said they seen a 5.0 make 145rwhp i just dont believe that

at the most theres 20% loss through drivetrain and even that equates to around 190rwhp

stock these motors arent really anything special

the e7 heads are what kills em in the hp game

Manual...all power options.

Oh well, he's not worried, $20 G's later he's got near 350 RWHP, unblemished paint, and one SOLID suspension! His car is BUTES!! I keep trying to get him on here but he's not interested. (and yes I know that you all should think he should have more with $20 G invested, but its Canada, and Canada is EXPENSIVE!

I bet his car came from the factory like mine did...with the base timing set at 6*
