I have one question for all of you Chevy fans... if Chevy is so great, why did they have to put a 350 in the Camaro to get it to keep up with a 302 Mustang?

The 302 works great in a Ranger pickup as well. Although on this rebuild, will build it for twin turbo's

That idea came across after reading about that setup build, 1100hp. Sounded interesting, so will have to try it out.

There's nothing you're gonna be able to do to make that thing hook up though.

I have already thought of that, even my goal of the 800hp range is going to be tough to hook up.

edit: My 55 ford should be able to get hooked up better though. Just ideas at the moment of course.

800HP, tou could get it to hook up with the right suspension setup. 1100, I don't think it's possible.

haha, I definitely will need to redo the frame and suspension on the ranger. With the stock 302 and stock suspension, floor it at 55mph and it breaks loose.

yuppers. Will do the weight distribution rearrangements. That will require some thinking though. The dual 3 chamber flowmasters hog up the space from axle to bumper as it is.
