    For one thing, 240hp is sad. It's kind of pathetic that an engine with such a reputation as a performer never made any real power numbers from the factory. HO parts are cheap. GT40 parts are moderately priced. The Cobra motor has Cobra upper intake, GT40 lower intake, and GT40 heads. The Cobra motor also comes factory with Crane 1.7 ratio aluminum roller rockers, where the Explorer come with stock stamped steel rockers. The Explorer motor has GT40 upper and lower intake, with GT40P heads (which are a little better). With the right cam and exhaust, the Explorer motor can put out 300hp without any other mods.

    I would say the old Shelby Mustangs. The Boss 302 was under rated pull there rev control box and they would fly.

    Teh boss had 290hp gross. Ratings from '72+ are net, which is more accuate (aka the same engine would be rated lower). There is also the Tunnel Port 302, but they were never installed in a factory produced car. The Tunnel Port basically blew up a lot because it had to rev to 7500+ to make power. Wee!

    The 302 was available from late '68 to 1995 in Mustangs, except for '74 when there was no V8 and maybe 1980 or '81 when the 255 V8 temporarily was the top engine.

    My bet is on the '93 Cobra for the most Ford Produced horsepower.

    The older mustangs (ones not using the BOSS) didn't seem to use the Windsor 302, but instead used the 289. Those went into 300hp+ arena.

    I think the 93 cobra had 240 hp or somethign like that. maybe a early 70's boss 302, but then again thats not a true 302 since it has cleveland heads.
