Wut to do about engine???
 
Well my engine is till running good but it has a lot of kilometers on it,194k....don't know wut that is in miles.well anyways i was wonderin wut i should do because i wanna rebuild my engine soon and i was wonderin whether i should buy as new block and build it up from scratch as i get money or whether i should just rebuild the old one and add the regular high performance stuff in?
I am only 17 and still in high school so that has to be considered.........i do have a job and i make decent money because of the hours i work....oh how much is a new 302 block and i was woinderin also about a 351(cleveland or windsor doesn't matter) wut do they run and are the parts as easy to find as a 302?


thx for any advice
JAMES

Do you have the facilities to build the engine yourself (like getting a rebuild kit), or do you want recommendations on say, a pre-assembled long block?

i'd say if your doing it, go for the 351. and my suggestion would be to start with a shortblock, and then put on your own top end.
