Worth it? Budget heads/cam/intake dyno tested! 

Likely because the after video will make a bigger impact when the numbers show a significant increase.

I agree find a new Dyno guy

I was going to say the same thing

For real! Every single video the dyno just isn't doing its job

They're bringing a faulty car to the dyno. Driving it should have revealed the miss.

Every time

Love 50tussin !!!

You do all that you may run in the 13s 😂

Same here. I bought an 86 MAF car and it ran like hell in a bad way. Cleaned that first thing and it was like the car got a tune there was so much difference

I thought 87 was speed density unless is was converted

I'm doing a simalar setup and making 380hp on my 302 so these guys are messing something up

@@ricksanchez5696 agreed. This channel is just "ok". He's entertaining and all the fox content is great, but it's kind of all over the place, you don't really get a lot of answers or follow ups and you never see a reply. The other 2 big fox channels offers all of those. We'll probably never see a follow up on this car honestly.

That beard of doom rules, it RULES🤟

Get the trickflow top end kit for the 2V, night and day difference, I'd imagine it could get ya 400rwhp even more bored and stroked too a 5.3L. the cylinder heads are a huge bottleneck on these modulars I imagine a hand ported set of pi heads and a short runner intake you could easily break 300rwhp

@@chrishansen7004 for the price of the trickflow heads I can piece together a blower kit.

No doubt, I didn’t say it was impossible, just not like the old days where you could easily slap a cheap fast combo together. Everything is more expensive these days, and that changes the way people feel about “Bang for their Buck” I LOVE Foxbodys, but if I didn’t own mine I’d just start with a newer faster platform, you can literally buy a 12 second 2012 5.0 GT for what a decent Foxbody is going to cost now.

It should def be doing more. 260-280 shouldn't be an issue with a setup like this it has an issue that is causing power loss. You seem to have a solid comb 370 is very respectable out of a 306 but you can easily make 300 or better with a budget hci setup and fbo with say a ported explorer head and intake Combo with a decent cam.

@@midnight347 I’ve built dozens of combos, I’ve seen it all… I made 297 at the in 1999 with aluminum heads, a cobra intake and a b cam….300 at then tire used to be the gold standard an easy combo , I made 325 and trapped 116mph in 2004 with afr 165s, a custom grind, and a performer 2 intake… gt40p heads just don’t make power… a gt40p head ported by big dogs or someone like that, and a fully ported explorer intake, with the right cam, on the perfect day can make 300…. I have NEVER seen a gt40p headed car make an impressive number… I not saying it can’t sound good, and be fun to drive… but people have to be realistic and no what to expect…. 280-300 at the tire is a HUGE goal, that MOST , not all, but most combos will not accomplish without a solid head and at least a longer runner style intake…. You can do it on a cobra/gt40 but it will be hard.

Oh, you're building to please somebody else. Got it

Sounds worth it to me!

No gain it torque?

THAT IS NOT a similar set up

Seriously, why waste expensive dyno time before getting the basics dialed in first?

So true LMBO

The stock HP can definitely do burnouts. 2nd gear burnouts too.

Average stock P heads can support 360 HP. (180x2) There's other limiting factors.

@@hotrodray6802 nope, stock unported gt40 heads Woild be hard to get more than 270 to the wheels out of a 302

Valve bounce in the mid range too

Not at the tires they do like 185-190 at the wheels on their best day with a 5 speed manual less through an auto.

Stock is about 190 T5 on most dynos

Dude similar combos make close to 300 all day long there is clearly something wrong with the car. You can make well above 300 to the tire with a good setup on a stock bottom end low compression 5 liter. This car is clearly down on power because something is wrong. There's plenty of ways to make power with a ford there is absolutely no need for an ls anywhere near a mustang.

I’m with you man, those of us who are a little older remember these cars ruling the streets… 300rwhp could get it done when corvettes were making 405 flywheel horsepower and 13s was still quick. in 2020 trucks make 500hp… people still have this idea you can run basic tier parts and be competitive… seems like a large majority of the Foxbody crowd have joined the last 10 years or so, and just don’t get it.

@@cf88gt I’m with you I’m 43 and worked as a bag boy for 4.25 and put every check in every week on my engine. It was a 302 came out of my 85 GT and to get 300 with out spraying it or spending a fortune on Paxton you was screwed! I spent probably 3000$ and only had less than 400hp and thought it was fast! People don’t understand this day in time!! I would probably swap the fox to a newer motor or BBF and a turbo!!
