'90 351 power rating?

I've looked around, but cant seem to find out how much horsepower and torque my 1990 f150 4x4 EFI 351W came with from the factory.

Thanks in advance

Thanks a lot,

Now I need to guess how much a Vortech supercharger (? boost) headers, rockers, borla, MSD would add. Thats what the truck came with when I bought it.



Thanks again

It runs great, quick on the street and unstoppable in the sand dunes. Even gas milage isnt as bad as I thaught it would be. (14/11 city/hwy)

I'm really not sure about the drivetrain, I just bought it a couple months ago. It has 4:10 gears, but I think they came from the factory. The universal joints just went out at 100k miles. I dont think anything has been "beefed up" though.

Good luck with yours

Most superchargers add 100hp, headers around 25?, 1.7 rockers, around 5hp, any catback around 25, and MSD is around 25. So I would guess you have around 390hp! That is one healthy 351W!

Those numbers sound awfully high for a Catback
5 hp probably be more like it

Same thing for headers Maybe 10 Hp

And from my understanding MSD ignition doesn't do anything

Yeah, thats what I was thinking. It depends largly on what boost I am running (will get a gauge soon). But I was going to guess 100 hp for all the mods.
