RE: 302 block with 5 grand to spend?
I'm asking what YOU would do with it. My plans are street performance and occasionally taking it to the track. I haven't decided between efi or carb yet. I think carb because it would be easier to tune and cheaper.

I would get a 347 kit with flat tops. I am an AFR fan, so I would get some 185s with 58cc chambers for about 10.5-10.8:1 compression.I'd go with aComp Cams XE 274 or282. For an intake I would go with a Victor Jr. and a 650-750 cfm carb. This set up is good for 400+ rwhp N/A on pump gas.You should be able to do this for $5000.

I prefer supercharged fuel injected myself, a little bit more streetable and less frequent tuning, but your right about carb and all motorbeing much cheaper and if emissions are not a concern too you then go for it. 92Grey's setup sounds about right id just make it a comp stroker cam instead and i guarantee you will be able to find a carb single plane manifold cheap somewhere easily.
