The primary difference between the 302 and 302 HO (High Output) engine lies in their performance specifications. The standard 302 engine typically produces around 205-220 horsepower, while the 302 HO engine is tuned for higher performance, generating approximately 230-300 horsepower, depending on the model year and application. The HO variant often features upgraded components such as a more aggressive camshaft, improved intake and exhaust systems, and sometimes higher compression ratios, enhancing overall power and torque. These enhancements make the 302 HO better suited for performance-oriented vehicles.

How do you identify a ford 302 ho motor?

One way is the firing order. The 302 HO has the same firing order as the 351. So, if the firing order is 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 you have an HO engine. If the stock manifold is on the engine, it will say "5.0 Ford HO". The exhaust manifolds were factory tubular headers. They had roller cams.
