This is what I've been told, too. I believe you need the flywheel that =
geos with the 302. It's probably a good idea to replace the clutch =
while you've got it apart. I don't know about the engine mounts. =
You'll probably need them, too, but I'm not sure.

BTW, a 351W will work just the same, if you run across one while looking =
for the 302.

Sleddog was looking for a set of 429 PI heads and there's also a nodular 9"
rear end in this ad. That's dirt cheap for that rare one.

don't need 'em anymore. got a set of blue thunder "a" heads last year for
dirt cheap. about $1,600 for the heads (complete), matching intake and
stud girdles. flow like sewer pipes and the intake (an offy POS) has been
built up with epoxy, and then dug out very large! fits a dominater card,
but i had a 750 on it - but soon i will have a well done dominater to use
for mondo cheap also!

so, i ain't been looking anymore.

thanks for rememberng me...

I did the same swap a few years ago to a 79 F150 4x4. the trans bolted right
up. ended up modifying the engine mount brackets on the frame to make it work.

I have a 79 F100 with a 300 6cyl, 3 speed on the column. The truck is in
good
shape but the motor has about a million miles on it. What is a good source
for information about changing to a 302? A friend of mine said a 302 will
mate right to my transmission and bolt right in. True? Things to look out
for? Bill Jeffreys
