the kickdown is different, the throttle cable is too long...
best bet is probably going with a roller 5.0, you can get them cheap, they last forever in comparison to the older 302s.
anything from the mid 70s to 85 is going to suck performance wise.
: All right, I need help making a list. I plan on getting a long block. What is the best year to go for? Also, What other parts will I need…I think I know the obvious but what am I not thinking of? Will my six cyl down shift linkage work on the v-8? Throttle? These are the things I need to know. What years of the 302s are compatible? Advice Please! If you want to read other questions and my own running list look at the post "swappers and advice givers read this" I wasted a little time on that one and didn't get much of a response. Thanks
