I'm with Ron1 about the expense factor. Boss 302's are collector items now. Too much money unless you're building a concourse show car. Get a stroked custom built small block and make it specific for your application (street, strip, or combo), or just get a crare engine from Ford. If it was me to do over again, I'd get a crate 392 CI for about 430 streetable HP and just bolt it right in. Might have to have specific headers to get the 351 W block into an early Mustang, but they do fit.
