    I met a guy who has a 302 roller block, no intake but everything from tyhere down to the oil pan. Very clean Low miles (arn't they all?) He pulled it from a mustang.
    without heads is this worth $300?

    I would also say no. To give you an idea I bought a 85 Lincoln with a 302 & AOD got it for $ 200.00 and it runs good. Deals are their just have to be patient sometimes.

    Absolutely not. Can get the same thing in the same unknown condition at Pull-A-Part here for about 150 bucks.

    And that includes the intake. Throw another 65 bucks and take the transmission still bolted to the engine with you.

    Thanks for the Info. It looks like he won't get a sale. He does have a super charged Mustang that looks VERY fast. not for sale though
