5.0 vs 5.0

Hey all, I've got a 93 f150 with the 300 six. I also have an old 5.0 out of my 88 Cartier. Now I'm curious as to why the trucks and Crown Vics were around 150 hp but the Cartiers and the mustangs were 235? I'm guessing different cams or heads. Any one know for sure? Thanks

Different cam and intake designed for top end horsepower while the truck motors were designed for low end torque.
