        :stupid:

        Best bet would be to find one of the desirable factory engines anyway, something with the good heads and such. I know not this information, someone else would tho.

          Dosen't matter, both blocks were garbage. One was locked up (much to the SURPRISE of the slavage yard, and the other had a crack that Ray Charles could have seen!)

          FUck how much can I get out of a stout 302?

            Go 351. Better torque.

              Yeah, a 351 can be had for a pretty reasonable price too. Extremely common in trucks. Its been heard of to do 400 hp from a 302 with a stock cam, but its certainly not cheap. I've seen Explorer motors for sale for under $500 used.

                A 351 is a stronger block anyway. Plus you can stroke one to 414 or so stock. All the torque of a mild big block and the wieght of a small block. Plus there are much fewer fitment problems, most of the stuff Ford has already done for you.
