Hey

My first car that i have is a 68 Mustang Coupe. It is a v8 302 c4. I am currently learning more about my car, but i would like to know if anyone has any kind of help to make my acceleration or torque much better because it lacks in that. So far all i have done is the exhaust with Flowmaster 40series and a xpipe, but i would like to increase my speed/acceleration and torque.

So any help would be great Thx

try a tuneup with new dist cap & rotor, new wires and plugs, fuel filter, oil change, etc. see if that helps, then try a timing bump (don't remember what setting, but someone here will def. know). another way to give the illusion of torque is to install lower gears in the rear. Good luck.
