Stroker kit

[ID89GT]

There is a guy on craigslist here selling a 347 short block stroker for only 200 bucks. The question I have is that it was out of a 77 bronco, and is not a roller. Could I take the crank and rods and everything and put it in a roller block and not have any problems? The pistons he has are for .30 over so i would either have to machine my block or get new pistons. Just wondering if this would work, thanks

Yes, the 302 hasn't changed in 30+ years.... All 302's are the same deck height and main size so you'll have no issues. You could also buy linked bar hyd roller lifters and covert it over to roller, you'll have to swap cams as well.

Hmmm I'd probably just swap it all over to the block I have already lol, don't gotta pay very much to do that

watch the balance on it. most 347 kits i see are 28 oz an the 5.0 is 50 so you'll need to use the right fly wheel an balancer.
