why would anybody build up a 302?

ANd you obviously got the money to play.

I'm happy enough with 300hp, sure more would be better and I am gonna stroke out my spare 302 and if some day I am graced with 400hp I'll feel lucky.

honestly if you are happy with 300hp then by all means keep the SBF.

why would anybody be happy with that?...the 302 just needs to be pressurized a tad...

Theres nothing wrong with that. Its when people want 500+hp when the game changes and the SBF becomes an epic money pit

Lets get back to the op thread..

I'd love to have a 400HP+ 302 someday, even though that almost definitely means a supercharger. I also am jealous and live vicariously through you guys that can both afford and put together some of the rocket ships on this forum. My car will never be up to that level.

I will keep building my 302 because I can and I have parts. But for $1200, I could buy 2-3 302s and maybe even a few T5's, lol.

As I said, if you can do it, you'd be a fool to buy a dart block over a LSx swap. I will never have the money, outside the lottery, to have much more or faster of a car than I have, which still puts a major smile on my face every time I drive it.
