[QUOTE="Magic, post: 379193, member: 9430"] What year is this 302 motor? And whats it out of? is it the original from your car or a spare motor? If its a 86-92 Mustang vintage then you already have forged pistons. IMO a good basic rebuild and power upgrade would be the following: (it will be easier on the wallet, and its a type of combo many people run) just rebuild it using the stock crank, rods (with ARP rold bolts), pistons, with good bearings and rings (lots of money saved, compared to buying a stroker kit)... Then for Heads/Cam/Intake, an "easy" way out package would be something like Trick Flow package. Go with the Track Heat intake. However, the 94-95 cars may not like the TFS Stage 1 camshaft that comes in this kit....thus requiring a tune. An N/A combo ^^ like the one above should net aproximately +/- 285 RWHP....(with supporting mods like full exhaust etc) After that I suggest you to drive it around like that for a while....if you want more power, then get either a nitrous kit or stepup to a supercharger like a Vortech kit...(also upgrade your fuel system, and get a tune)...
