got the car 2 days ago it has 114000 mile's what kind of mod's can i do. it's a 302 ho is that the same motor as the mustang if no what can i do to get the same power im new to the ford v8 i also have a 91 sho.

I have pretty much the same engine in my 1984 except it's a throttle body injection instead of an electronic fuel injection. First thing i would do is rebuild the engine, with that many miles it could be getting near its end, or at least losing power because it's worn. When you get it rebuilt I'd go with some nice aluminum heads and parts like that to add some power while you're at it. A supercharger would add some nice power to your bird too. I'm looking to throw one on mine and gain about 50 horses or so. You could put on a dual exhaust system, I took my from a single to a dual flowmaster system with headers and hi-flow cats and it freed up about 30 horses. Ummmmm.....i added a dual snorkel air cleaner to get more cold air into the engine, and installed hood scoops from an 88 turbo coupe for a custom ram air system which added some nice styling and power at the same time. There's a lot of things you can do to the Ford 302, let me know if you have any questions.

Mods are pretty much similar to the mustang's.<br>K&N filter, different rear end gear, underdrive pulleys, tranny shift kit, ADS superchip, higher thermostat, fuel pump & injectors...and so on.
