Here is a 0-60 video i made with my truck

Not bad for a stock EFI 302 eh?

Ehhh...I dunno, never been a fan of the 302...and that video is the reason why...what was that roughly 10 seconds?????? Judging from as soon as the speedo needle moved to where 60 was, and syncing that with time display on YouTube. I always felt the 302 was underpowered for a full size rig.

Oh, i love the 302. It has plenty of power (for me) and gets decent gas mileage. Yeah, it was exactly 10 seconds, but that will change when i put a 5.0 HO in it.

Sounds good man...I didn't mean any offense...just been a while since I've seen a double digit number in 0-60 test...haha. Hell, my 8000lb '96 cad do it in about 7.5 seconds...although we're talkin 460 power there. And then the 400 in my '77 pushes me 0-60 in 6.2

Eh, no offense taken...it only has 185 HP, so i don't feel its that bad. My 5.0 HO should cut a few seconds off the 0-60 time as to now, too bad it will be awhile before i put it in.

WOW! 6.2 seconds, that's awesome!

Thats awesome. My Mustang track tested at 5.2 seconds (like the Alabama song... ), my Dads 2004 Jeep GC (4.7L HO V8) does sub7s, and the truck I havent tested. The Speedo is off anyway... haha.
