Seems like the vast majority of the 'small blocks' are stroked, which if you think about essentially amounts to free horsepower from the increased displacement. But for those that are interested in old school motor displacements, it makes it all the more challenging to find a 'real' 302 ... or 289 for that matter.

Tim,
It appears that CS would rebuild your 289/302 engine if you brought it to them. Also, I think it would be very easy to find an early 289, 302 or even a Mexican 302 block for your build. I always see them posted on various websites like the NorCal Shelby website or even the SAAC Forum. Also, you could buy a brand new 302W block from Dart, if you had to, but then they're expensive and you don't really need it.
I'm sure a builder like Keith Craft would build you a straight up 289/302 as well. There are local guys who would build you one too.
