the Summit rebuild kits......good or bad ? i NEED to rebuild my engine and i was lookin at Summit's kit. $470. forged, 10.13:1 compression. is that too high ?? cuz, i am gonna race it sometimes, but, most of the time ill be easy on it. ill probably run an e-cam with it, trickflow heads and trickflow intake manifold. if i get the heads, intake and cam, will i need bigger fuel injectors ?? bigger fuel pump ?? anything else like that. ill also bolt on a 73mm C&L and a 65mm BBK tb. would that combination work well together ?? or any other diff combo work better than that ?? thanks.

 

just out of curiosity...whats the part number for that kit

 

the one with standard rod/main bearings is FEM-MHP173-000. you can go to Summits website(www.summitracing.com/) and type in "302 rebuild kit" under keyword and itll give you everything they have.

 

just be aware that with that compression you will have to run premium high octane gas all the time. I would also check with Summit to make sure the valve reliefs in the pistons can accomodate the 2.02" intake valves in the bigger better flowing heads too.

 

the only type of gas i run thru my car is 93 octane. so, thats covered. ill have to call 'em and talk to them about it. Thanks Roundman.

 

Dont use the E-303 just purcahse the TFS head and cam combo.. Has intake upper and lower for 2k . They make a 360 Fwhp kit.[8D]

 

i would, but, i need to rebuild the engine first, and when i do, i cant decide IF im gonna do heads or not or just leave everything stock.....FOR NOW. too many decisions, not enough time.........
