060 is pretty far for an overbore, have you sonic tested the block to ensure it will take that much?? Not all 302 will safely take that much.

.60 is too far over for most 302 blocks. If you need .60 to clean up the walls that one thing, if not, bore to .30 or .40. Boreing does not give you enough h.p. to even be worth trying to figure.

Red face I'm still learning and will always be...

I didn't know that some 302 couldn't take as much as .60 over. I don't want to had sleeves, so I may go for .30 over with balanced stock crank.

Thanks for your advice and knowledges.
