    I have a bunch of parts from my 302 that i dont plan on using. I was just wondering is it a good idea to just keep them around just in case or do you think i could get something for them? Things like the crank, cam and heads. Just wanted to hear your guys opinions.:) im just curious
    Thanks

    I would keep them.....start collecting what you need to build another motor.....or spare parts.

    my auto teacher told me something that people should know (here we go)


    a motor is for something electrical and an engine takes gas

    Keep the parts...when you find a junk-yard 5.0 to swap in, most of the parts needed to make it fit in the mav will come from the 302. So keep it all. You won't know which little bracket or part you will need until you do the swap...

    After the swap, you will have lots of parts to sell or give away.
