better heads will of course be key, GT-40 or the like. The light nature of a Fox body makes them respond well to performance changes. With a simple 302, they do burnouts pretty easy, the main trick is getting it to hook up. I put a 351W in a 79, traction was the biggest problem.

I have decided against doing this 302 build for a good while cause a good while down the road I will just buy an entire car from Arizona, Nevada, texas area somewhere where i can get a car with no rust at all.
Im thinkin more like a Trans Am or a 69 Camaro maybe even a Ford Galaxie or Volkswagon bug. Whatever I get in that nature will not be a daily driver and will be a down to the bare frame restoration with a built motor.
