yeah and thats a good thing[8D]

I took that into consideration and he can go bigger for more power in the top

, but his computer and bottom end will have annoying issues, unless tuned.

id say if you have the correct springs, pistons get notched, a tune; then go for it.

Just be prepared to sacrifice your bottom end, for more at the top with 302 Cubic Inches of Displacement.
