You will need some other mods, but the 302 is the same pattern as the 300.

The other mods that mike was talking about would be frame mounts for the motor, modifying the exhaust for the 302, different flywheel and clutch assembly, rad and rad hoses, as well as accessory drives. other than that you should be good to go. Have fun and good luck.
