A friend of mine had a 302 laying around that he was going to put i his truck but never got it. He needs money so he said if I gave him 200 I could have it. It come with the wiring harnes ecu and AOD.Im going to get a 94 95 k-member and pt it in my 97 over the summer.I figure i would just freshen it up and put some nice heads on it with a nice cam. But I dont think im going to go EFI but rather carb'd.The motor had 150xxx miles on it. What do you think?

 

well sounds like you already made out really nice. good luck on it. my .02 is i would keep it fuel injected, but i guess if your gonna want to turn it into a bit of a drag car then go carb. i might be able to help you on that if i get this other motor or not.

 

Is that motor from a truck? If it is, you gonna have some problems.

 

Nt really going for a drag car but a good dd but runs 12's in the 1/4.Im just tires of all this electronic stuff and so many people have told me im an idiot for going carbd but oh well. Ill admit I dont know much about push rod motors and carbd cars so this will be a cool way for me to learn i guess.

 

a dd runing 12's? have fun with gas and staying away from tickets. some one soon will come shed some light for ya that know's everything about anything. lol

 

I was getting like 13 mpg before my odometer broke lol.Im 19 still havent got any speeding tickets because I cant afford the insurance now much less with a ticket

 

carb ftw good luck

 

Thanks...Whats a good carb I can run with a nice set of head with like a 500 or 550 cam?

 

What year is the motor. And you will have to cut the pistons to run that big of a cam. remember a big cam doesn't always equal power. It will sometimes hurt power. You have to choose a cam that works with your combination.

 

Yea see I dont know much about the 302's.What would be a good cam to use then with out having to do modification?I
