7.2 seconds is not bad at all. That's only a few tenths slower than my modern 5.0L Coyote F-150 "granted my trucks curb weight 1500lbs more than this one, but still not a bad time at all, that's about on part with the first gen Ford Lightnings.
Greatly appreciate your content! I have a 1994 f150 302 but I just can’t find myself spending money on it since it’s a long bed. I bought it as my first truck but I just really want to get a short bed one so I can mod it similar to what you did.
I’m referring to bumping the timing at the distributor. The stock initial timing is 10°. A 3° bump helps throttle response and might gain a number or two. You can research more by looking up a 6liter tune up on a 302.

Maybe you’ll find a good short bed sometime soon. Keep the long bed and you’ll have a good cruiser and also a hotrod truck too.
Gotta love an old 302. Definitely not fast by modern day standards but that Windsor sound is priceless.
I agree. Sometimes I miss that old truck!
Awesome truck really enjoyed your video keep up the good work
Thank you
What's the 13 degree timing adjustment? You adjusting the cam?
