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've driven a few 350ish HP 302 914's and they are FUN!!! Still have tq down low (not quite as much) and they just pull and pull and pull and then you shift.
If i was building a SBC i'd try to do a 350 the hard way... 327 crank in a 400 block. still spin 8k rpm but more displacement and more power. The Siameesed bores are a PITA, but do-able. BJH |
