thanks. sorry for all the ?s just got the truck and would really like to know history and specs of it.

 

1972 F100: There are different rear axle ratios, and two possible 9 inch rear axles.

To discover what you have:

Post the AXLE code found on the Warranty Plate, which is located on the left door face below the latch.

There are other codes on the Warranty Plate. Post all of them.

Myself or someone else can decode everything for you...including your VIN.

360: 145 net HP @ 4,000 RPM / Torque: 264 ft. lbs. @ 2,200 RPM.

390: 156 net HP @ 4,000 RPM / Torque: 292 ft. lbs. @ 2,000 RPM.

 

wow, is that under rated. for insurance porposes? Its got to be higher then that. my wifes 94 camaro 5.7l is slower then that truck. and its rated higher in hp and tq

 

The vehicle vin. is F10YLP48716, title vin is F104LP48716

Door Codes are : Warranty: 115
Color: 6
Body: 2 4
Trans: C

GVW: 4450

Looks like somebody made a typo when they issued your title!!!

 

not to be a dick or anything, but thanks for pointing out the obvious.

Title VIN? Someone goofed by typing a 4 (no such VIN engine code) instead of the Y.

Don't like the net HP figures? Wait till you see the gross HP figures! It has everything to do with the new Fed Emissions Standards.

The HP race that began in the mid 1950's was just about over. The era of multi HP engines (and Muscle Cars) was coming to an end.

 

Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.

I have a 4 speed trans. and i found online hp was 215 and tq is 375. I must have a different motor and trans. then original, guess its a good and bad thing. good for what i want, bad for being restored original, which i planned on doing. hp rating must been underrated for insurance or something. my 5.7 camaro, has less *** then that truck. i also have red interior bench seat, limited slip rear. independent front suspension.

 

why doesnt what i have match these numbers?? and i cant find anything to match them with what i have anywhere online, i have found 215hp and 375 tq. im confused, is there anywhere online, that someone actually has specs on these trucks.

 

ND just gave you the factory specs.

BELIEVE it!!!

 

For the third time, these are the Certified NET HP figures, not the GROSS HP figures.

The NET HP is all that is listed on Warranty Plates thru 1972. After 1972, nothing is listed....at all.

Your truck's Warranty Plate lists: 157 NET HP @ 4,000 RPM for the 360 2V.

I do not have the GROSS HP figures for a 360. It was listed on the air cleaner decal as original, but I don't have a truck w/a 360 engine.

Here are the GROSS and NET HP figures for 1965/67 F100/350's w/a 352 2V: GROSS HP: 208 @ 4,000 RPM / NET HP: 172 @ 4,000 RPM.

Here's what the GROSS HP was for a 1971 390 2V as installed in a Galaxie/LTD: 225 HP @ 4,000 RPM.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In sales brochures, advertisements, and etc, auto manufacturers always list the GROSS HP figures.

But when the engines are dyno'd, the NET HP figures are known.

Here are some examples of late model pickups GROSS & NET HP figures from edmunds.com.

2004/2008 F150 Super Crew 5.4L (330 cid) 24 Valve SOHC V8 / GROSS HP: 300 / NET HP: 242.

2007/2008 Nissan Titan Crew Cab 5.6L (339 cid) 32 Valve DOHC V8 / GROSS HP: 317 / NET HP: 291.

During the HP race that began in the mid 1950's, automakers always OVER-estimated the GROSS HP figures, and the same thing is still being done today.

 

alright thanks for your input.
