I've read that the stock 302's from that time were around 260 HP at the crank and can rev to around 7000 rpm. Not a bad motor.

your wrong about 260hp, its more like 390hp. people say that its a rumor, but 390hp is true.

My bad. I was mistaken with chevy's "rating", or under rating for that matter.
