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! |

Can do alot better than a ZZ4 for the $$$
Want to be sure to use Alu heads, and a lil work makes the edelbrock's work pretty well for the $$. You having a 930 box already means you dont have to go small displacement. you can build a 350 to turn 8500 rpm's but the extra tq is too much for the 901. The 302 is a neat motor, but you dont need to limit yourself to keeping small displacement. Explain to your motor builder you want a high RPM motor, and are only moving 2500lbs. Let him build a motor from there (course we want to know what his plans are) BJH |
