    The only thing it will hurt is your gas mileage and your billfold.

    Most guys call a roller motor(or what they think to be a roller motor)or an EFI motor a 5.0.If not it's "just a 302".302s aren't as good as 5.0s...hmmm,kinda like those guys who think them 289 HIPOS were the best engine ever.:rolleyes:
