Horsepower and torque on a 5.8 EFI?
Anybody know the Horsepower and Torque on a 1989 5.8L 351 Windsor engine with the EFI? I've read around 210 hp and 315ft. of torque. Anyone know if thats right? Also anybody have any ideas on how to increase HP and torque on this particular bronco for around $300?

Your numbers look right:

Increased airflow (intake and exhaust) is the cheapest way to increase power if you're good at DIY work, otherwise you're looking at expensive bolt ons or fab shops. Remember torque is what gets you moving, and is more important in heavy vehicles like the Bronco.
There are a lot of posts in this forum that will guide you on where to start...but the important question here is what you want to do with your Bronco.
What are you using it for/what results do you expect? Are you wanting to tow, increase 0-60 performance, mud, rock crawl...etc?
