yeah. A buddy of my has his own performance shop. He will be the one doing the initial tune on my car. i made a thread a while back about a car he built. it was a 5.0 "Cammer" motor with twin turbos. Pushed 1150 RWHP at 28 PSI. So he should get me set up pretty good. I would like to shoot for 400-450 RWHP

Yeah... I kinda doubt that's true... I think he's full of bologna.. no way a 302 made that much power...
hey rebel, he said cammer.

why cant a 5.0 make that much power? ive seen 4cyls make 800+ and i know of a supra with an inline 6 making 1100 to the tires. all were turboed as well. why isnt it possible?
i saw a video yesterday of a supra pushing 1645 rwhp. have a turbo mag with many powerful cars in it but their stock blocks are considered a stronger block than the 5.0.

I said "Cammer" 5.0. Which is the ford racing DOHC 5.0 engine. It not a traditional 5.0. And why do you say it's not possible to make over 1000RWHP on a traditional style 302?

I've seen one with my own eyes.

Sorry but in my opinion that guy is an idiot.

I would NEVER use a stock block with intentions to make 800HP. That's straight russian roulette..

NXCoupe if you believe in karma don't scroll down..here are pics of a stock shortblock that was pushing just under 600 RWHP. I have posted these pics before.
























WHAMMMMMOOOOOHH!!!! Done...fox shortblock.

New guy here and wanted to bring this thread back from the dead.


I just wanted to call BS on the following comment. "pushing just under 600 RWHP. "

That would take about 700-725 hp at the flywheel depending on how you figure it. That engine was not making that kind of horsepower, period, as a matter fact. Interestingly, I'm curious how Lafenatu would know how much HP it was making.

And you know this how? I watched my buddy put down low 600's on his stock 302 short block. It had AFR heads, cam, and a T trim cranked up. Oh, and meth. Shortly after that he ordered a new engine complete with a Dart block.

It was even on the internet for a bit.

That block was also concreted...all the 1/4 passes are letting off before the finish. They need to see if it would make it down a full 1/4 in one piece. The key to stock block longevity is tune and low rpms.


Again, are you referencing the engine in post #5 ? It wasn't filled with hardblok either.
