pistons: federal mogul or silvolite
rings: hastings
rods: ford oem
rod bearings: federal mogul
main bearings: federal mogul
cam bearings: melling
rear main seal: fel pro
timing set: melling
gaskets: fel pro
oil pump: melling (standard volume)
Each Block Is Heated In A Hi-Tech Cleaning Oven. It Is Then Blasted, Tumbled and Magnafluxed To Insure There Are No Flaws. The Block Is Then Re-Bored And The Cylinder Walls Are Power Honed to 1/1000 Of An Inch To Insure Precision For A Prefect Fit. The Block Is Then Checked Using An Advanced Dial Bore Process To Prove Quality. OEM I-Beam Connecting Rods Are Installed, Camshaft With Original OEM Specifications, New Set Of Pistons and Rings. Crank Is New or Freshly Ground, New Timing Chain & New Timing Gears.
THIS AUCTION IS FOR A PROFESSIONALLY REMANUFACTURED 302/5.0 LITER BLOCK (.030 OVER) DESIGNED FOR HYDRAULIC ROLLER CAMS (1986 TO 1995 MUSTANGS AND OTHER FORD MODELS).
THESE SHORT BLOCKS ARE BUILT FOR 10:1 COMPRESSION WHEN STOCK 58cc HEADS ARE USED.

RE: Engine Rebuild Need Suggestions
crane and comp both make great rods, lifters, rockers, etc. a long short block to build on IMO, would be bored .030 with a summit 347 stroker kit w/ forged internals, heads of your choice with comp hardened pushrods, lifters, and 1.6 or 1.7 rockers (depending on cam) new double roller timing chain. either E, F, or trickflow st 1 cam. that would be a good base for 350+ n/a hp. if you already have the motor youre looking @ around 3g's in parts give or take.

are you planning an n/a setup or power adder? if youre not getting any kind of power adder you could get away with hyperteutic pistons, etc. but i like forged because you have a little more insurance.

RE: Engine Rebuild Need Suggestions
im just going to get the trickflow kit, some other mods like 24# injectors bigger tb, convert to maf, but no s/c or nos or any power adder like that, so i should just get the hyp. pistons? and what rockers should i go with, the tf kit comes with trickflow cam, heads, double roller timing chain i think? and intake and stuff.
and how good are those pistons and rings and bearings and stuff the federal mogul or w/e.

hypers are alot cheaper and will be ok with that. forged internals are just more reliable with s/c nos etc.

Eventually I want a power adder so forged is the safest bet.

Oops I got you confused with r.barn, my bad. You are right though you see a lot of rust buckets just rotting in peoples back yard or in fields in the middle of no where....... Ive bought a couple and restored them with a bud of mine. I already want another.... wheres a field or a barn at?
