Hey i got a 68 stang. Its got the 302 engine, and headers, everything else is stock. What do you guys estimate the horse power is?

 

I'll find you the link for what hp that has in a little bit. Do you have pics of the car?

 

probably around 215-225. I usually overestimate, so it might be lower. I know the 302's didn't have too much more power stock in 68 than the 289. and a 289 had 200.

 

there is a link to find how much horse power your car has? well hurry up bc i want to know too.

 

289's had 190

 

what? Ideal, a 289 2v had 200. A 289 4v had 225, and a 289 hipo, had 271. Now in todays terms of HP, a 289 probably has around 190 or less.

 

We were both wrong. I just looked at my options book, and a 289 2v had 195, and 302 4v was 230 and a 302 2v was 210. This is all for 68. Keep that in mind. Your model did indeed have 200. In 68 there was no 289 4v or a 289 hipo.

 

oh, right right. i did know that it went down to 195 in 68, but for some reason, i was still thinking about my car. You are right ideal. So if he has a 2v 302 with headers, i was very close with the HP numbers. He probably has 225-230.

 

wait wait wait im effin confused what the hell are yall talkin about v2 v4 v8? is there such thing as a v2? what the hell is goin on please somone make me feel stupid bc im lost.

 

2v is a 2 barrel carb car, 4v is a 4 barrel carb car. Making sense now?
