Off road/Crawling/Use as a truck- 300
Racing/showing off-302
The 300 is an awesome engine. Tons of torque and as reliable as can get. Probely the toughest (gas) engine ever built, its only real downfall is it runs outta steam at about 3500RPM, but if you crawling, pulling, climbing, etc, you cant beat it.
The 302, im not really a fan of. There fast, high whinders. Usual small block attributes. They wont pull like a 300 (givin the same gearing), but they will run circles around one, there downfall is they Dont have the torque of a 300, and a 351 is just as easy to put in an RBV.
