My fox was originally a T5 car. The girl I bought it from put in an AOD because she hated shifting. When I swapped in the 351w I wanted to go back to a stick. I knew a T5 wouldn't hold up behind the new motor. So...... I had James at Race Related put in a new TKO600. He did the entire swap for me. I am very happy with the work he did and I love the TKO600. A TKO600 may be overkill for your 302, but if you intend on making alot of power down the road I highly recommend the TKO600.
