Hypothetical Situation...

Help a brother settle a bet...

Say this guy I know gets a 347 rotating assembly from Summit or Jegs and puts it into an otherwise stock 82 302, using the stock heads, an Edelbrock Performer intake, and Edelbrock carb. Assuming the stock 4spd, stock gears, etc are all used. The only other aftermarket parts on the car are maybe a camshaft and 14" aluminum wheels with street tires.

If we line up his Mustang next to my stock L98 Formula what you expect to happen?

He's making more power than you and weighs less. Only thing is the '82 gearing probably sucks but that only matters a little bit.

Hypothetically...

"maybe a camshaft" is a big maybe. Theoretically...he has a stump puller that loses it's lungs at 5000 rpm.
