I dont really want to stoke it due to the shorter engine life. I thinkI have decided to get another 302 make it A 306 and with all the bolt on parts now a daysI think I should have know problem getting a decent powerplant to breathe strong. If you guys have any nice combos in mind.I would love to get some fresh ideas about what to but on the block. Ill let eveyone know what happens whenI definatly decide what im going to do. this project is going to last a little while im building it very slowly......thanks for all the input its very helpful.....MIKE</P>

You are a fool to not go with a windsor over a cleveland.</P>
If i were you id build that tired 302 if this is a daily driver.There are so many parts and combos its not even funny.</P>
Dude im young. Everyone has to learn. The sixI built for my F250 just rolled over 45,000 and she has not given me even the slightest bit of trouble. Thata why we are all in here talking about these things, to learn dude. So next timeyou get a big strong mighty feeling, Leave it offline or something. thanks for the boost of confidence. how long ago did you build you first motor. then decided to do a second motor. </P>

Are you Talking about lifters: Thinking about using crane came 1.6 adjustables.</P>
this is just a short quick list so far im thinking like this:</P>
JE pistons; ford forge steel crank and rods; 6qt oil pan; crane cams hydralic roller lifters; cam with just under a 400 lift; Edelbrock Performer RPM heads with a good set of valves and springs lucati or something ported and polished; Edelbrock intake,75 mm throttle body, And a77mm mass air meter. and lots more... not a motor i want to be blown but shortly after i do the swapI would like to give her a turbo or supercharger of some sort....</P>
