Hi everyone, I'm new to the forums and would like to say that I'm looking forward to learning as much about mustangs on here as possible. Well I have a 70 mustang coupe that I plan on restoring. It originally came w/ a 302 4spd
but now it has a 460 c-6 and that was a pain trying to get it out and I don't want to put it back in, I would like a 5spd and maybe later on a 331 stroker. My question is if you think anyone would be willing to trade their 302 for for a 460 or should I just try selling it for cash. Also are their any must have books on restoring that I should buy? Thank you for your help and input.

Welcome. Trading a 460 will depend on what you have there. They're not all alike. You're best bet if you don't want a big block is to go with a 351 based motor, either Windsor or Cleveland. These will bolt in place of any 302.
