    Don't need to change anything unless you are getting a hell of a lot of horsepower out of the 302.

    What is in there now? If a 250 and C4, the bell housing will work fine.

    Unless you are racing it or pounding it hard. You should be fine.

    Never heard of an '80s 302 that made 400hp. I have to assume that it was rebuilt with some serious performance parts.
