My friend has a 1972 Ford Maverick with a 302 in it. he has done basicly nothing to it except flowmaster exhaust. i have an 86 sc wit 305, dynomax 3 inch cat-back and a transgo shift kit in my 700r4. Do u think i could take him.

Come on guys doesnt anyone have an opinion on this. Id appreciate the help. thanks

what is the 302 out of?
what kind of induction does it have?
if its a carbed late 70's early 80's 302,
then you should beat him imo
but if its an h.o. 302 i dunno

its the original motor that came in the car. the car only has 32,000 on it though and an old grandma owned it before he did so it wasn't beat on. Its carbed im not sure if its 2 or 4 bbl though but its totally stock right down to the snorkel air cleaner with the exception of the flowmasters.

I think you should be able to take him.

Na dude, my brother in law had a 70 somethin maverick and that thing was fast as hell. It will smoke you 305.:hail:

I would say he would take you as long as he got traction.

i dunno ive been in the car wit him when he raced people and it doesnt spin the tires at all and it doesnt seem that fast. to me my car feels faster.
