The 302/5.0 block isn't as stout as an inline six. I would go with a 351w instead. Then the normal stuff like forged crank, rods, etc. Last I...
That is a good weight, how much do you weigh?
That is pretty light. I would guess that an aluminum 302 block, and heads would be close to the weight of the I6. Throw in fiberglass hood, trunk...

That was the color of my first Comet. I'll never forget buying touchup paint for it, and reading the name on the paint being Aztec Gold. Anyone...

Thanks for clearing that up. I read what you said earlier, but it seemed like everyone was referring to it being your car so that was why I was...
I would have to say that the AC, and power sterring would be easy as it all came on that engine anyway so there should be tons of brackets in junk...
Wow, if thats correct, then it would be huge as in I might actually try this someday.
