      Ah ok that makes sense, use a 2.5+ bottom end with a nice fancy vtec head.

            For the money invested in building a 302 to actually get you 350whp you'd be better off with an LS based engine for much, MUCH better reliability and efficiency.

                          Untitled by Wschnitz, on Flickr

                          Went with a classic Aluminum color finish, just used normal metal paint as its not going to get hot any longer :D

                          Going to design it in three pieces so I can easily move it, A base with 4-8 pins that will slide into the bottom of the block, then the block itself, which I left the pistons and crank in so I can turn it over with a wrench, and then ill design a tabletop the same way as the base that the pins will just set inside the Head bolt holes. It will be designed properly that it distributes the weight of the block evenly on the floor so if i want i could possibly push it around with a finger :)

                          Yes I know a freeze plug is missing, Yes I know i Painted over bolt holes and freeze plugs, i masked off all of the other mating surfaces and after the paint cures properly ill sand them smooth and polish them.
