Going to go with a custom hyd roller either by Freezy or Ed. Probably will notch Pistons. Looking for a used Holley intake,bigger MAF,30-42#inj,TB,new balancer,etc. Want to see what the 302 is capable of before going to a bigger engine in the future. I'm hoping for a high 11 to low 12 sec pass while still being except able for the occasional cruise night/fun street trip. This is just a toy not a daily driver. This pass year I only drove it about 50 miles. Was burned out and tired of the weak 302. I just sold the nitrous kit also. I might eventually go back to one but for time being staying N/A.What are your plans for the reat of the combo?

That's what I was thinking also. I still have to contact the cam guys and see what they recommend. I expect somewhere around 220-230*dur and around .600 lift but that's just an assumption. Heck I might even get away with not notching Pistons but I'm not afraid to do it if necessary. I always wanted to build a max effort stock shortblock and see what happens. If it blows it blows. Eventually Im going dart block but that won't be for a year or 2. Just going to have some fun and see what happens.You could go a little more aggressive on the cam and make a little more power. He has a very mild cam in his.
After looking for a used Holley intake I decided to order a new one. So should be here this week. I still haven't checked for a cam yet. I also still haven't decided on tuning. A chip? MegaSquirt PnP?,PMS? Maybe they Holley HP? I have a 70mm MAF and TB on it right now but that isn't going to work. So...buy a MAF&tuning or get rid of it completely?! Also got the 130 amp alt kit from latemodel. So some progress..
Yeah they are probably overkill on this type of project. I'll probably hold off until the next engine. I can't justify the extra cost. Besides I still have a MAF and injectors to buy. Also going to put a better balancer on. Thought about Long tubes also but not 100% positive I'm staying 8.2 block on next engine.Been looking at the microsquirt by stinger. It is supposed to be self tuning
Honestly, I don't understand all the lingo and talk of tuners right yet, but I know I can't afford $2k for one.

They would look good sitting on your Dart block:droll: injesting about 15#boost!I see uh , a flaw in those heads please package and send them to me asap so i can analyze them
