Of course!

On the serious side --- this combo offers the worst front / rear weight distribution AND the worst aero that I can imagine!!! So you can be slowest in 60 feet and at the finish line!!! Makes my Comanche look like a rocket ship!!

1051 R/SA

Last year I asked for hp off the 300 as 190hp is too high, was denied. I had a 92 f150 with the 300/aod/3.08 rear gear that while slow bracket racing, was deadly consistent and went a LOT of rounds. Instead of my longbox, I thought a short box and gearing/converter/hp off, etc would put it closer to the index/make it viable.

Yes, the 300 is factored more than the 302 and 351W. The 300 has 40 horsepower added to it, and the 302 and 351W only have 30 horsepower added to them.

I didn't see the F150 in the classification tool. Did I miss something?

Your choice of the 150-horsepower 300(4.9) EFI inline 6 factored at 190 horsepower, the 185-horsepower 302(5.0) EFI V8 factored at 215 horsepower, and the 210-horsepower 351W(5.8) EFI V8 factored at 240 horsepower.

They fit anywhere from "V" all the way up to "O", depending on year, model, and engine choice.
My father-in-law used to own one. What a turd 💩. I used to give him s..t all the time about it. But it would be cool to see a van out there!

It occurs to me that the lighter cargo version may be viable after all- some of them come with a window in the slider door on the passenger side.

My internet is ****ting he bed right now, took me 10 minutes to load this answer page, but anyway, look 1993-1994 I forget now but there are a few specs different and I think the 92 was better. For Ford, the only logical combo is a 302 2bbl, but a 150 would be cool. I even looked at the 302 150, that would be easy to find parts for if nothing else.
