Lets change the topic and compare the 302 with the 351w.
Im going to put one of these engines in my 74 Maverick, but which one is the best bang for the buck?
I want a daily driver that can do 0-60 in 6.5 sec and still be able to cruise on the highway without running out of steam.
The key for me has to be reliability, because the only thing I know how to do is change the oil on the car!.
So, is it possible to get a 302 to do this or should I go for the 351?
How much horse power can I get and what would be a good source for the engine?
Transmission wise, I would like a manual, but since my car is auto, I most likely would stick with a beefed up c4.
