Ethan, what is the difference in the block between that and a 302?

I think there are plenty of places that sell built T 5's for that set up....start looking...

 

[Gibs]

Look on Craigslist....there was a newly rebuilt one on there the other day.

Other than being bored .030" over there is no difference in the block. The difference comes in the stroke of the crank. Stock302ci = 3.00" stroke 347ci = 3.40" stroke.

Who is putting it together for you?

 

[IgottaV8]

Me....... lol.

Other than being bored .030" over there is no difference in the block. The difference comes in the stroke of the crank. Stock302ci = 2.75" stroke 331ci = 3.25" stroke.

Thanks Bobby. That is what I thought, but wasnt sure.....so he has a 302 block .030 over and a 347 crank and rods right?


I am thinking of just staying with the 302 and was thinking of the possibilities.......

Whoops! Fixed my post. Just realized it was a 347 not a 331. 347 = 3.40" crank

I hope he is joking. Dont take a step forward and two back. There is alot of knowledge here use it to your advantage

Me....... lol.

Uuuuuum............ o.k.













Now for real, who is going to do the work? What else do you plan on buying? I have a underdrive crank pulley here that you can have.

Bobby, I thought a 289 had the 2.75x4.00 and a 302 was 3.00x4.00?

 

[orange395w]

You are right Gibs 302= 3" stroke. I'm rusty.

You are right Gibs 302= 3" stroke. I'm rusty.

Give a guy a 351 and he forgets about all us little 302 guys. LOL!!!

[Gibs]

Thanks Bobby for making me think.....now my head hurts.....LOL

V8......I hope you are kidding.

I would actually like to see Ethan do it himself.....with the help of someone who knows how. It is a great opportunity for him to learn and when your building your own engine it makes ya respect it more. If things dont seem right it makes ya fix it before ruining it. Plus I think HE can!!!!!!!!
