yea i was reading that somewhere but didnt know if it was true.

that would be to easy and i dont want boost on this one. im going to build this with room to grow. might be some juice down the road with this set up.

If you already have some bolt on parts on your 302 that will just fit on the 302 you have already and the motor is in decent condition why not just buy the heads your wanting and the intake you are wanting then why not just get a stroker kit for the 302 you already have. For $4,500 and decent 302 to start with (if thats the case) and if you already have some of the basic bolt on parts anyways that want swap over then should be able to get close to what you are looking for with maybe less of a headache looking for things needing for swap and having to do away with any bold on parts assuming you have some that will not be able to use on the 351 block. The just have compression setup for the nitrous you plan on down the rd.

the only parts i have on the 302 that want swap over is the headers.
the 302 i got now is in good shape except for it having 143xxx miles on it. the motor is stock except for the underdrive pulleys,cai,and the exhaust.
