302Monster

So I just got done with finishing military training and received my bonus. As soon as I got it I started ordering parts for my mustang...

I blew a oil ring in my stang that has 250k miles on it and instead of trying to rebuild it I ended up buying a stock 302 replacement from late model restoration and a trick flow top end kit (I was going to get the holley systemax top end kit but the tech guy from that website told me he only saw 275 hp from that kit.) Along with this I got a 76mm MAF and a 70mm TB and today I just bought a used rear end with 3.73 gears already in it (my traction loc was broken and only 1 tire would spin.)

I should have everything installed and dynoed by the end of December. Does anyone know of a reputable dyno company in North Carolina?

How much did you spend? Couldn't you have done better buying a crate motor?

I know that I'm limiting myself with buying this kit. I wanted to piece together a kit of my own but I ran out of time and needed to get my car running soon. Hopefully I can make a little more hp with this kit over the holly systemax kit

all the long blocks that I have seen were $6,000 plus and they claim only like 300 hp
