Performance advice?
I have a 95 f150 302 and I'm trying to give it more hp. It has a catback exhaust and I'm not sure what the next step should be. I want the most bang for my buck without killing my mpg. Any advice?

You should look the Windsor engines part of the forum, there is a wealth of info regarding performance there. Btw, did you try the six litre tune up already? it's a cheap/fast way to gain some more power.
You probably have a MAF setup there, so cam choices will be even better, i would ask Conanski about a good setup, i guess it all depends on money and time.

This is a good mod that can help and it is easy to put on. The intake tube goes right on the original box relocating where the cold air goes into it. Just a thought.

sounds like your just looking for some more HP , nothing major , what kind of truck is it , 2wd or 4wd , if you don't want to go LT, shortys will work ok you just need a better y pipe , the Ho cam may be a good choice , if you want to change cams , gearing is very important on the 302 , it makes better hp in the higher rpms , underdrive pulleys & e fan will help take a load off the engine & help power & fuel mileage....
