I'm going to be building a mid-high 10's NA car. I'm building up and pricing out my parts list right now and could use some help. I'm going with a Dart Aluminum block, no sure if i want to go with the 302 or the 351 though. Any help on Cams, heads, pistons and the like would be a big help.

YOU'LL NEED A WELL BUILT HIGH WINDING 302 TO HIT YOUR GOAL, best bet is to stroke either choice

Will i be able to go with the Dart aluminum block, or am I going to have to go with something more high end

Stroke the 351

mattdel

you could do it with a production 351 block

the stock 302 is high miles and really worn. I wouldn't want to put the money into it. I wanted to buy a good block designed for a lot of hp/tq and something i could build and not have to worry too much about power limitations

Ford has new 351W block for sale M-6010-N351. $ bolt mians and it can go as big as 434 C.I.D.
Good Luck............

the regular dart cast iron blocks will be fine too.

are you really going to buy a dart aluminum block for a 10sec car??? money could be spent sooo much better else where but thats just my .02 cents

Then I could tell you that if you are using an iron 351W block in a FOX body Mustang you end up with lots more wieght on the front end than you would have with a 5.0 block.....
