87-92 225 crank

93 also had 225 at the crank.

1993 was rated at 215hp.

No 205 actually, but it was only because ford changed their ways of testing the engines output. The engine actually makes the same power as the 87-92 engines did. BTW, the SN95's were rated at 215 crank, had they been rated like ford used to rate them, they would have been 235hp at the crank. just a little FYI from the inside.

cold air intake and a dual flowmaster exhaust(vary's between which exhaust you choose)

And a racing chip will bump you up to the 300's(if ur lucky)

Your going to have to do a bit more then that............Trymatching intake and cam and you'll be getting there.

Sry, but a cai, caback and "racing chip" will net you about 10 hp. Dont waste your money on a chip unless its custom burnt with a tune. And an intake and cam still wont get you anywhere near 300. If your lookin for 300hp cheap then nitrous is your best bet. Either nitrous or a HCI swap with a tune. You can get setup a basic nitrous setup for around 500 bucks, then add in a few accessories and your probly around 800$, and you can get a full topend kit for around 2 grand, depending on what brands you go with.
