Agreed.  The 'ol 302 is a great engine with tons of potential.  In stock
form, there are many many tweaks and bolt-ons that quickly up the power
into the 300hp range.  A stock '94 or '95 with an ignition timing set to 14
degrees should be in the 6-6.5 sec range to 60.  You'll need some S-car
tweeks to keep up with that...or an idiot who just spins the wheels at the
line!
