yeah, those numbers were low, i was expecting 450. and thanks, ill look into it.
he has a dyno video of a 302 they just built that did 605 at the crank... thats about 510 rw. out of a pushrod 302... probably not in your 5k budget though.

prolly not. but my main concern is a good starting point. so right now im deciding on a short block.
Dale - I just got my copy of the new 5.0 Mustang in the mail today and on the front cover is a four eye fox body and it's all about motor swaps this month! How weird is that? lol

haha i got mine too and read through all the builds. 347 stroker carb or efi is where im leaning. it can't be a coincidence.

My carb'd car did not like the cold weather at all, very tempermental until it warmed up. It was easy as hell to tune though and cheaper than EFI. On the nitrous plate it would carry the front wheels about a foot off the ground for the first few feet. It left HARD!
There are pros and cons to both EFI and carb'd setups. It's really what you can live with and afford.

Save me that copy would ya. I'm starting to do research on that for down the road. I might start buying parts here and there for the swap, so it's not such a hit all at once. Makes the wife happy when I spend it slower.

You're not doing a swap, just a shortblock build. A swap would be changing up your setup completely.
