Hey guys,
I have a 65 mustang that needs a short block overhaul. I found a 302HO with gt40p heads on it already rebuilt out of a 97 explorer. I am considering buying it and changing the cam out to a comp. 270HR. I will be running the HIPO manifolds, weiand alum, intake, electronic ignition, a holley 650, and a 4 speed with 3.73 gears. What kind of HP should I expect to get out of this motor with that cam? I have never been really happy with my 289 with this set up but the heads are stock and the cam was a comp. 268H. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
