You can make more power with a 302 than with a Chevy 350 , just look at the 5.0L Mustangs. Yes it does cost more but like rickyracer said you'll spend more money than you save on a custom driveshaft, tranny crossmember, etc etc. If you want to go fast its cheaper to stay Ford. That way if you ever want to sell it you can actually find someone would want to buy it. A Maverick with a Chevy motor is worthless to a lot of people. If you are wondering what it will take to put a 302 in there check out this link: MaverickGrabber.com
: I normally do not like fords. but the maverick is a great car im thinking about investing in a maverick i have a friend that has a 70 mav with a chevy 350 and chevy transmission he didnt install it . thats what made him buy it. how hard would it be to put a 350 in a mav and what kind of work will need to be done
: Any info would really help. thanks
