Again, that broad torque curve make the car a lot nicer to drive. But as was posted, let your budget dictate your build, don't let your build dictate your budget. Engine builders that sell you stuff that you flat out do not need to accomplish your goals should be studiously avoided. I always for knowiong what you want to do and to it without spending any more than required. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yea thats what i need to do but like everybody else my plans are waaaay ahead of my budget. [/qb][/QUOTE]You COULD rebuild the 302, probably for around 12-1500.00 (Maybe less if you can do some yourself). A set of heads add 1000. Intake - 400 for a TFS. You'd be alot closer to those 11's than a 347 with stock heads.... You'd spend about the same on a 351 rebuild, but add headers, oil pan, a little more for bigger heads abd you'd probably be in the 11's... OH, you'll need to convert to mass air, unless you've already done so. No matter which route you take. Your stock computer is NOT going to like most of the changes we've talked about. Like has been said, start with the budget and THEN pick your parts.... [/QB][/QUOTE]
