Alright so i finally put a 302 that has been at my dads for ever on an engine stand to start rebuilding it. From what the previous owner (my dads friend) told me, the motor is an 83', is bored .060, and ran like a beast. It was in his mustang that he wrecked, which was an 83. So now i have it and want to rebuild it since it has been sitting forever. I planned on just taking it apart, have the heads and block checked for cracks, and looked over. Replacing all the old gaskets, and maybe port and polishing heads and intake. So i have just started tearing it apart. Basically i was just looking for any pointers, tricks, advice or anything you guys might be able to share with me to make this process go smoothly and not let myself destroy anything. Anything you guys have would be great!
Thanks,
Byron
