You need just to find a 302HO block. I believe it was either 85 or 86 when they went to the HO roller cam block in the mustangs.

Whats wrong with yours?

Nothing is wrong with my block, but I think it's redundunt to rebuild my currect motor when I can buy a block for $100 and do a complete build while still having a car I can drive.

fiveoh..
how much HP do you think is the direct result of porting your E7's?
How much do you think they are producing?
I see alot of people with good ET's that are still using the stock heads and I think that's great, why discard a valuable resource.

On the butt dyno, they resulted in a big smile on my part

between track testing I changed alot of stuff, so i cant say how much it really helped. But I'd have to guess maybe 20hp or so. Nothing too crazy, but every little bit helps

Wanna buy mine? I'm getting some GT40p's soon and will be getting rid of the ole E7's
