Hey all, i just joined this site, im needing some help on my 302, im currently rebuilding it and i keep reading all these crazy numbers with clearance and all these different numbers, im getting quite confused, is there a website that lists a lot of this, or would it be better to just buy a book?

"How To Rebuild Small Block Fords" by Tom Monroe would be a good book for you to buy.

Hi and welcome -- a shop manual has all of the numbers (specs) you need. You can find one at a Mustang shop, Hemmings Motor News or type in "shop manual" in your favorite search engine (Google is good) and order one.
