302 baby!!!!

I wonder why it's going to be a DOHC 4v. I'd rather have a pushrod motor.

New cams for it is going to be expensive I'm sure. Now you'll have to have FOUR cams instead of two, as if two wasn't bad enough.

Plus an extra set of cam phasers to have to limit/lock out, lol!

I'm betting they'll have a BOSS 302 package.

What I'm curious about is how many cubes can you bore and stroke this coyote to. I want 400+ cubes.

Why would you rather have a pushrod? you can do more with less on a DOHC 4v.. my concern is the compression.. it might be high enough that s/c might not be a good idea.
