ballpark figure on horsepower

j's69stang · 01-12-2001, 09:52 PM

i got a 69 mustang coupe that i just recently had the motor rebuilt. It got punched out .060, a 282 comp cam, 3 angle valve job, heads decked, flat top hyperuetectics, 10:1 compression, edelbrock performer intake, edelbrock 600 carb, msd ignition, hedman headers and 2 1/2 inch flows. the guy who built it said that it had around 240-250, can someone estimate what you think i have?
thanks

I think the estimate of 240 hp is about right! I would think you would have 240hp
at the rear wheels. I good set of aftermarket heads would put you at the 300rwhp mark.

I would say that probably about right. What size motor do you have though??
