well, just to bring up a point that hasn't clearly been address yet, is that you might be able to make the same power with your 302 based motor but the 351 with make gobs more torque, and besides, horsepower is just a function of torque, the formula for hp is based on torque. so along that line i just can see why not build it, except in terms of money
