302 V8 Short Block

Post by laffycaffi »

Sadly, the engine lost compression in my '72, just 10 months after I bought it. Are there any rebuilts in good shape out there?

That sucks, man. May wanna hit up Rox, Rdanford, 76, Zilla, etc. to see what they are doing with their current carbed V-8's. One small ray of sunshine I see is that it is good timing to work on it over the winter and guys moving to EFI motors.

My 302 found a new home in Free Bird.

I was at BMH on sat and rdanford's 302 was still sitting there but I don't know if it is actually available or sold.

76 may have a mustang 5.0 available.

Good luck.
