Looking at a EFI 302 out of a 87 Bronco. Also just emailed about a disassembled 390.

What would you guys think a reasonable price for a disassembled 390 is? I was thinking $125.

ok honestly, not trying to sound rude but

dont just get whatever you can buy, pick something that you want, and search form there. because youve gone from a 300, to turbo on you 200, to 302, to 390, to 351. theres no way you want a 3 speed and 7.5 rear with a 351 infront of all that

I was actually just looking for any V8. 289, 302, 351, 390, 427.


I have an 8" rear end, I can get a T5 from my grandfather.

I have a friend that has a 351W with a T5 behind it and it holds up pretty good.

This is his 67:

the t5 will get torn up, it cant handle the 290 horsepower and all that torque. youd probably need a t-56 or tko
