Building a 302
I am looking to build a strong 302 and get it bored out. Is there any one year of the 302 block that I should look to get?? Are they all about the same?? Did anyhave forged internals to start with???

85-92 all have forged pistons. The 93HO's have hypereutectic. All 302 blocks are basiaclly the same, the only difference between a HO and non HO, is the HO's have a lifter retainer, theres 2 little holes that hold this thing down. Thats it, other than from the factory most HO's had forged pistons. So no there is no "best" year for the 302 block.

20 PSI, dude, you got to get either a R302 or a Dart Block there is no way a stock block will handle 20psi, dont even bother to waste your time on DSS level 10 or 20 blocks cause there still stock blocks. You need to get a 4 bolt main.
