Forged pistons in a Mercury 302??


Recommended Posts

Hi guys I came across a deal ($300) on a good running 302 from a 1991 Mercury Gran Marquis.

 

Does anybody know if this engine came with the forged pistons just like the Stang's?

 

And are there any other differences between the stang engine and the mercury engine?

 

Power output??

 

 

Thanks, David

i asked my 5.0 buddy and he says they had

 

Aluminum flat-top pistons

swirl port heads(E7TE in mustangs)

Lower-lift cam (fuel economy, torque)

50mm throttle body stock(60mm in mustangs)

14# fuel injectors(19# in mustang)

standard flow upper intake(better breathing intake on mustangs)

Factory exhaust manifolds

150 hp (155hp in 1988 only, w/dual exhaust)
