Project #2!

Bronco folks!!!
i absolutely love this site! Didn't realize there's a Bronco group on here too until I was googling some stuff about this 82 I bought! I snagged it mostly for parts for my F250 which is being restored so there's pretty good potential that I'll make it a running beast too.

For starters - can any of ya tell me how to figure out if this has the 302 or the 351 in it? Block looks small and I'd figure the 351 is a good sized beast!

Don't hold me to it, but it looks like a 302 to me.

One of the quickest ways I've heard to tell if it's a 302 or 351 is to look at the distributor hold down bolt. If the hold down bolt is level with the bottom of the intake, it's a 302. If it's about an inch below the intake, it's a 351.
