why is a 302 only making 240 horses? that sounds a little low. oh well. and i didnt say that my argument applies in all cases. im just saying in general. theres pros and cons on both sides. my dads 87 honda accord with a one point something 4 cylinder makes about 85 horsepower and i think its somewhere in the 90's for cubic inches. oh well its not that big a deal i was just stating an opinion.
