Unhappy 302 power

I just purchased a cobra with a new 302 in it. It was supposed to be around 400 hp. It just isn't fast enough for me. Any recommendations on what I should do to first to get the biggest bang for the buck?

I want horsepower!

Not fast how? What rear gear are you running? What type of trans?

I just replaced the 3.10 rear with a 3.91. I'll let you know when I try it out. Just remember, there is no substitute for HP.

Have it stroked. The 347 stroker produces around 450 Hp if modestly built and gobs of torque. I run one in my trackstang and it's a real rush!

Cheers, Pete C
