302 not in a truck?!!!? are you insane??
that is one of the easiest blocks to build on.
i appreciate your kinship with larger blocks, but the stock 302 in my 84 Bronco whipped the 350 in a k5 blazer many times...
maybe you had a lemon, but 302's can be wicked bad and parts to modify are easy to find.
i love big blocks but you can be pimpin big with a 302.

Put a 351W cam in that 302 it will wake it up. My old truck has a 302. Before my dizzy went bad it would jerk you backwards on takeoff. That with a 3.00 axle ratio. At 100 mph hour I am running between 1/4 and half throttle. I have no problem pulling 6000 pounds down the highway or getting it started. I think 302s are terribly underestimated. Stock they are not anything as far as trucks go but it does not take alot of cash to get them where you need them.

yea yall might be right my 302 i got now seems to be a pos no pick up when i git on the throttle at all.
