Default RE: is it possible

To many people are retired to the 'ricer' mentality today...that mentality is;

There are only four or so ways to make horse power;
#1.) Get some nitrous
#2.) Get a turbo
#3.) Get a supercharger
#4.) Get a humungous gigatical big block with over 600+ cubic inches.

302 cubis inches can make 450hp. Obviously its going to take more effort and probably more money than a 351 or a 347 or something, but it can be done. Read some REAL engine builder books, not Car craft or hot rod. Look up some real tech articles on the net. Learn

that afr article is pretty interesting though. i'd go stroker, if your sticking with a 302, if anything (331 or 347)...just easier and c'mon... no one will know your packing more cubes unless you tell them

If you have an unlimited supply of money, then yes, its possible. However since you probly dont, go 347 stroker, or supercharge the 302.
