My 1991 Ford Mustang 5.0 liter V8 ( LX ) had a compression ratio of
( 9.0 to 1 from the factory )
( 8th " character of VIN was an " E " )
11.2to1
9.01:1
A Ford 302 engine, yes. A Chevrolet 302 engine, no.
My Chilton repair manual shows 2 listings for 1987 Ford 302 V8's the compressions ratios are: for 1987 Vin (F) 150 H.P. as 8.9 to 1 for 1987 VIN (M) 210 H.P. (high output - HO) as 8.3 to 1 The eighth digit of the VIN indicates the engine code
A 302 engine is one that has a total displacement of 302 cubic inches. This is roughly 5.0 Liters. Although the displacement of 302 ci can exist in any style of engine, it is most likely and American made V8.
The 302 was a good engine - if you have a massive gas tank in your boat. It is a fuel hog.
The intake on the 1979 Ford 302 engine is different than the intake on the 1993 Ford 302 engine. The intakes are not interchangeable.
The 1974 Ford Maverick equipped with the 302 cubic inch V8 engine typically produced around 140 horsepower. This was a reduction from earlier years due to changes in emissions regulations and the introduction of lower compression ratios. The engine was designed to balance performance with fuel efficiency during that era.
sure can!
302
Isit because of the valve opening distance and the makeup of the cam shaft?
about 12o lbs per cylinder
