if your looking for someone to rebuild it pm turbo50 he built mine and i have had no problems at all with it he's a good guy to deal with

just stick with stock displacement (302) getting it bore .30 over is a waste if you dont have to...

+1 i dont think you should go that far if the block doesnt need it. Just hone, new rings and seals, new head gaskets, top end gaskets, oil pan, timing chain gaskets, and wut ever mods you want. These blocks are pretty strong. Im sure im missing stuff.

+1 on Turbo50, he built mine also. He's cool, just don't hit on his wifey. Build a 331 or 347. I wish I did.

Do you wish you had a 331/347 or that you hit on Turbo's wifey?

Last i check a 306 wasnt a stroker! lol Opening the bore is always a plus as it unshrouds the valves, especially on 2.02 valved small blocks.

really depends on what you want to do with the motor (ie freshen it or upgrade) and the condition.

LOL... I had to figure out how to make a 306 stroker. You'd need a 260 block (3.8" bore) with a 347 crank (3.4" stroke).

Dans doing mine now and if I can remember right I think it was 350 for short block and 450 for long block to fresh up your engine but if your engine had 300k like mine you'll need some machining which will add up. But really a cool cat to deal with.
