I have started gathering parts to build a large journal 302. This is the engine this car needs to really work. The 350 is made to move a truck, where as a 302 makes the best balance of HP and torque. Ya the parts are expensive about 3 times the cost of a 350 but you only live once. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
I'll keep you V-8 guys posted! |

I will remind my friends with Z06 Corvettes, They got burned by Chevy with a 400 HP truck engine... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yappin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hitfan[1].gif)
On the other hand.. I assume you are going with the later model 302 roller motor as you are gunna spin it to 8.5K. Or are you going the old school flat tappet route? What kind of HP and Torque you looking for????? Clayton PS: I never should of sold my 91 Ford Pickup. I loved that 302 engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/burro.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/yappin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hitfan[1].gif) On the other hand.. You gunna use a later model 302 roller motor? As that would make the most sense to me. Especially with EFI if ya like the cosmetics and performance of EFI. The little fords can be a great platform for performance. What kind of HP and Torque you looking for????? Clayton PS: I never should of sold my 91 Ford Pickup. I loved that 302 engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/burro.gif) he's not gonna build a "fff"ford ya big dummy! he's gonna build a high reving sbc 302 [4" bore x3" stroke. the "spensive part is the crank [custom grind now], the valve train, the rods [gonna have to go with 4130 "H" beams], forged main caps w/splayed 4 bolt/stud, and no reason not to use aftermarket aluminum heads. 8500 rpm and 400 -500 hp easily done with $$$$$$! |
