I agree with stroker 393 about the 351.My '82 Gt used to have a balanced and blueprinted 302 with early 302 heads machined to accept 202/160 chevy valves,port work,screw in studs, Compcam with 292 duration and .535 lift, shorty headers and flowmaster exhaust system,Holly 650 carb and forged 10:1 pistons. I spent about $3000 total. After I installed a mild 351W I saw a night and day difference in power with the 351. Remember, torque is what actually moves the car down the track...not HP which is a byproduct of torque.
Enough of the science lesson for now...bottom line is I will never put a 302 back into that car. When it is time for another engine in my '88 GT it will also get a 351. Just my 2 cents ------------------ '82 GT 351W,BBK shorties, Comp Cam,edelbrock intake 625 cfm carter carb. c-4 tranny w/ pro stick shifter. 4 core radiator Mallory distributor. 3:27 ......................... |
