To me, if you have the money for a new: crank, rods and pistons to stroke the 302. than the extra money for a new block $150 +machining you would need to do anyway, intake manifold and distributor isn't all that great, you would probubly be buying them ayway. But if you really want it to look like a 289, then you need the short deck windsor block so no 351 for you. There is some fun in misrepresenting a big motor for a little one. sure, it's a 289 (347), any big block chevy I will ever own will wear 396 badges, even if it is 540+ inches.
