Question 302 horsepower?

I would like to know what a 1996 ford f-150 xl 2wd regular cab power rating for the 302 (HP @?RPM? and Torque @?RPM?)
I would also like to know the what the auto trans gear ratios are and also the rear end gear ratio.

Cool

Man, your asking for a lot aren't you ?? Just kidding. Mine has 205 HP and can't remember the torque figures. If I remember correctly there is another post like this on here somewhere, I'll try and find it. I'll be back.

Have Fun & Keep on Truckin'

Rear-end could be 3.08, 3.55, or 4.10. 3.08 was generally standard, 3.55 w/ or w/o Limited Slip is common, and 4.10 L/S was usually for towing applications.

HP & torque on my '93 302 4X4 was 170 HP and 205 torque.

Not exactly what you needed, but is a start. I remember seeing about the tranny in a 4WD magazine (Peterson's 4 wheel & off-road) years ago. The website may have an archive. Good Luck!

Here are factory specs for 302 engines:

With Speed Density: 185 hp @ 3800 RPM's, 270 ft/lbs tq @ 2400 RPM's.

With Mass Air: 205 hp @ 4000 RPM's, 275 ft/lbs tq @ 3000 RPM's

A 1996 302 would have the latter engine specs. since all 302's had the mass air fuel injection setup by '96. Looking at the RPM's, I can see why some people feel the speed density system is better on plain stock trucks. The S/D has much better low-end torque figures than the M/A does. However, if you're thinking about doing anything with cylinder heads, cams or other internal engine mods, than a M/A setup hands down is the way to go because of the way it can adjust electronically to the changes.

I'm sorry, the 1986 302's had 150 hp. That was the first year the 302's went to EFI in the trucks. For the 1985 2 bbl carb., the 302's had 135 hp @ 3600 rpm, and 239 ft/lbs tq @1900 rpm's. Pretty paltry numbers by today's standards.
