How much power will heads, cam, and intake get you? 

I have made it a habit to change plugs min once a year so things like having an issue with plugs doesn’t happen as often started doing that after I cracked a ring landed from a big misfire on 1 of my turbo car

Ever get it back over there to dyno it?

What plugs and gap do you recommend for the 5.0s?

That’s a damn strong car! And you were driving it too!

Those are damn good numbers with stock heads. Back when I did h/c/i on my sbe '93 I made 357rwhp@5700 and 360tq@4700 with home ported Edelbrock rpm heads, rpm1 intake and an e303. Ran 11:80's @ 115-117. I think the dyno I was on was a bit generous but the mph was good so it couldn't have been to far off

@@93_LXcpe thanks. Duane Bush ported the heads.. he had days porting and flow testing. Then we had them milled 110 thousands so compression was 10.8:1.

@@93_LXcpe what injectors did you use if you remember?

@@19jody72 maxed out 24's@50+psi for a while then moved up to 30's

It a damn fun car, looks bette than mine too!

It is. Mine's in the same range... again, HCI... it's a blast. Not the fastest car out there, but fun as hell. Get's me smiling every time.

Save your pennies and buy a C5 Z06. You get a quiet, smooth idling, reliable car that gets 30 mpg and makes 350whp in a 3100 lb shell. Incredible handling, cold ass AC, looks badass.

@@gtdrummerdude Yeah....but only rich old farts drive Vettes....and mostly idling over to Cars & Coffee events.

@@Turbo4Joe363 Z06s? No. Most Z06 owners race their cars.

I had gt40p head e303 cam and bobra intake with some headers and that car was a party... my butt dyo says 270 to 280. Loved every bit of it tho.

I have a 99 explorer 5.0 and its amazing it has the gt40p and no cam yet

​@danielbaker4940 94 cobra gt40x head stock cam stock intake (no pulleys except water pump and alternator) with a lightweight flywheel and i make avout 275 to the tire give or take 15. Rn im addint a cam and bumping compression and doing a cai so i can finally say in fullbolt ons with a top end. Hopefully im over 300 wheel at that point. Ran a 12 flat on street tires before so this plus a tire may see a 10 😂

That was an optimistic mustang dyno. Keep in mind mustang dynos can be manipulated to change the output, dynojets cannot. You can select the smoothing and correction factor but that's it.

Speed density or upgraded to MAF?

@@mikecooley3361 upgraded to MAF.

Equal length long tubes with an off road H pipe will get you another 20/25HP at the wheels

I agree very easily. I’ve seen a local fox with a sbe 302 with standard 170cc tw heads with a trickflow stage 2 cam, victor efi intake and all supporting parts make 356rwhp through a t5. So a 11r 190 setup should do damn good numbers.

Can u do the same with a carb

facts

Definitely not

I know man trust me its bullshit! Going trew it my self

The power pipes are a great option

@@FoxcastMedia I agree it's the best intake setup to get for a fox weather its na or forced induction like a vortec they make power pipes for both setups and they're definately best. If you got a healthy combo on a 302 let alone a 331 or 347 the little bbk and other brand intakes dont flow enough for max power imo. That is where the power pipes come in to play plus they look killer under the hood.

True...BUT.. would want at least 310-320 with a top end kit. Nothing on this planet has that famous mustang sound and nothing sounds better..in my opinion

Yep

HCI can be expensive, and yeah the results sometimes can be less than ideal

You need more displacement, boost, or both😅. I bet it still sounded good!

@@bri-manhunter2654 it does... I'm still on that setup lol... a coyote would be preferable over other options 😁

ImChrisDuke. Awesome, the Coyotes are becoming cheaper with more swap kits. I think 5.4DOHC swap would be cool to, everything bolts up.

@@bri-manhunter2654 in due time :)

Did you ever run it on the dyno?

Stock PCM with calibrated MAF and injectors?

Fr lol cali is annoying can’t have a loud car

California is a shit pit

Its a shothole run by democrats.

I feel you i try to sneak around town ln my 93 lx its all stock officer 🚘🔧💪🦊

California Kev The question is why do Cali’s keep voting the same monsters back into office? Get rid of Palosi, Schiff, and the Governor who is a marsupial. The Dems have been slowly destroying that state for 50 years. Get rid of those hacks!!!

That's what she said

That's what a head and cam 5.0 does what did you expect it's not in LS

@@alexchavez9083 your reply made no sense. I love an LS but you cannot compare the two.. So your comment does not apply

@@stewartwilliams5652 lol haha I'm saying that a head and cam 302 sbf makes around 300 whp thar right on the money thats all I've owned about 15 foxbodys so I'm familiar with the

@@alexchavez9083 yes sir, I see what your saying. However, I've owned my fair share of them as well... And I feel that is a bit low.

@@alexchavez9083 However, my original comment was more about the fact they couldn't get it to run right at higher rpms. They seemed so confused. Was funny cuz they are "pushrod experts."

Yeah I always found there was a big difference going from a fender well mounted filter to a simple cone filter.

I try to keep an even mix of both

Coyotes are cool but they take away the cool stuff American cars are none to modd i like modding heads cams intake Coyote makes power but its a boring platform 😴 Coyote on boost Coyote on boost thats it no big ass cam no bad ass heads i no they don't need it on boost but not verry exciting

Nice setup. That is a real hci setup. I bet a custom cam woulda been even better although the TFS isnt bad

My numbers were 340 rwhp and 365 torque using the same shorty headers that I first used on the stock motor. I used an Anderson fender well cold air with the largest filter that would fit. 30lb injectors and an A9L custom live tuned by Tony Gonyon at Tuners Inc.

Bet it flies

@@BunnyBUNGALO feels go for a 5.0 no complaints

Better get one soon because you can't get a decent one for less than 5 grand now and it's just going up.

@@rhull3939 I hear you on that!.. Problem with where I am is that crap they use on the roads during winter, it just eats cars alive and most of the ones I found are beat to hell or so rotted out that it would take a fortune to make it whole again. Plus the prices around here with all that considered is insane. Found one for $6k and it legitimately needs a ground up restoration just to be road worthy. So it sucks for me but I'm definitely going to start looking out of state and in a dryer climate because if it's worth it I don't mind paying an extra grand and a half for shipping honestly.. Like I said it's a real dream of mine and I want to look in my garage and see one parked in there lol. I'm not looking for a beast just one that's nice and I can really enjoy without worrying about it falling apart. Something with 400hp and 450-500ftlb of torque is really all I want in the end.. Anyways I hope that all is well with you yours good sir and please wish me some luck on finding a diamond in this rough lol. 🍻

Find one! I have a 93 reef blue LX hatchback, I wanted a coupe or GT but I love the car, I'm really glad I bought it

Definitely. I live in PA. I feel your pain.

@@scottsummers8167 Congrats on getting one and good luck making it truly yours!.. And reef blue sounds great. Personally I like some of the darker blue's or even a flat white with a minor polish to it.. Foxbodody's look incredible in those two colors in my opinion, I actually saw one in a matte military green and it just worked great for it seriously. Anyways congrats again and enjoy it for all it's worth. 🍻

Is the thick flow just the intake?

Maybe with long tubes, AFR 185s, and a good Anderson cam... and an Edlebrock Victor efi.

It’s coming bud

I have a Mini cooper with 324whp. The only difference between my claim and yours is I have a dyno sheet to back it up. I'm being a bit of a smart ass because I'm in the mood, but I do have a dyno sheet to back it up. ;)

@@michaelbradley7529 pfft. sorry to say but a pushrod 2 valve V8 making 324 whp is faster than a 4 banger . better power band due to velocity of air making torque better low range . what is the deal with you compact guys always barking up the wrong tree and trying to brag. like modern Type R's are JUST Now getting as quick as LT1 / LS1 F bodies from the damn 90s. just... stop.

@@tonypepperoni229 Are you sure you read my entire comment? You are claiming things I never argued against. It's like you are projecting arguments other people may have made to you in the past. I'm well aware of V8 hp and torque as I used to own and drag race V8 mustangs in my youth. I mention the Mini because that's what I have been racing for the last 15 years with SCCA. I can tell you from experience racing both that the Mini I race now is about 2 seconds faster in the 1/4 mile than my Mustangs were back in the mid and late 80's. Even though my V8's from the past had more torque than my current 1.6L it's also about a thousand pounds lighter. My main argument was actually addressing commenters that make armchair butt dyno claims.

@@michaelbradley7529 i gotcha. no i meant lb for lb anyway like two 2500 lb cars one with a 4 pot one with an 8 well you get it obv lol i dont not like Minis id take one esp at that power

​@@michaelbradley7529you deserve to be called a goof for that troll SILLYGOOSE😊

Probably the only Dyno session I've seen where the Operator stays in it while it's OBVIOUSLY popping. I know the dude is just getting started in tuning and it's *HIS* car, but jeeze...

If you know its pops stop fix it Then proceed

so what do you suggest instead of those filters?

2nd this

Well the cam is a start.. It's best to have a build able to handle all the boost.. Low end stock motor can crumble.. Best to plan out your motor build from bottom to top.. compression tough

Ip Man. Well my 394ci 6.4L Hemi stroker has all the above, and we’re breaking her in at the moment, so I guess you can check me off on all of the above🤣

@@bri-manhunter2654 u built a rocket ship lol
