I recently picked up a 95, 5speed 5.0. 127k original miles bone stock down to the air silencer. only mod done is the PBR brake upgrade I did, when I bought it. Bout time to put some $ into it (8-10k), so im looking for some feedback on what types of combos everyone is running and what kind of power you make. I'd like to get 500rwhp and it still be as street friendly as possible. Thanks!

You're not getting 500hp to the wheels on a stock 302 block, no matter how 'race prepped' it is. Not for very long at least. And you're not getting 500hp naturally aspirated either no matter what the heads / cam / compression. $6k for a warmed over stock 302? seller's got some balls that's for sure.

Well....4 bolt main, 14:1 compression, 116 octane, massive heads and spinning it to 8500rpms maybe. Seller is absolutely full of it. That's a stretch even for the gross power measurements they used in the 70s.
