i prefer 347's great torque and so much fun but you have alot of researching to do or find local speed shop and tell them you want to be in the11's they should be able to hook you up with that spending limit just dont forget suspension mustangs are light cars my problem is all motor but no suspension work yet but will be done soon good luck

The 351w will handle more power than the 302, but you will need to buy conversion parts to fit the taller/wider 351w in fox body.
Here is some info on the 351w fox body swap.

It is a work in progress though.
I built my all forged 408w for about 6-7k, but I did most of the work my self, and all of the 351w conversion stuff was already done.
A 302 build will be much simpler, and the 302 strokers can yield great results.
Good luck
