0-124 mph in 32 seconds is sort of an exaggeration. Maybe 42 seconds.

Yeah! The sound of Ford V8 is nice to hear. My 427 FE sounded like a readily race car even i use standard exhaust.

I agree, I love when a car company doesn't try to make their vehicles sound too quiet and tame. Part of the allure of an internal combustion engine is the sound.

@Shaggy I agree the Windsor 302 has a nice sound to it. My dad has a completely stock 1994 5.0, and it sounds pretty nice even with the stock exhaust. Most of the Windsor 302s still in existence have aftermarket exhaust by now, and so they sound even better. I have to say that Ford seems to pay attention to how their V8 engines sound, and even stock they rumble, and make good sounds. Nice feature.

I'll admit, I'm not much of a Ford guy, but, I love the sound of a Ford V8, my next door neighbor has a Mustang GT like this one, and it's modified, and loud, every time he drives by, it's music to my ears.

Displacement is 4.942l (4942cc) which is 4.9l. It\'s also 302ci not 305.

GM used a 305ci sround that time.

these cars are really restricted to air flow causing them to loses a lot of horse power from there 5.0 engine if you intake,headers,manifold and exhaust and tune you will unlock some really serious power. Some people have dyno a 30whp difference with a intake and it being tuned for it(30whp doesn\'t include the horse power from the chip)
