Perhaps in early-'80s carbureted form. The late-'80s fuel-injected 5.0 GT was advertised at 225 hp, IIRC. Neither number is really relevant to the engine in the misbegotten 190E I posted originally, which I'm sure is built up quite a bit (otherwise what would be the point)? Just as with a small-block Chevy, you can get 300+ hp out of a Ford 5.0 with very little effort, and much more than that if you have the money or are willing to sacrifice longevity.
