Not Ranked
a well built 302 is no slug...
My friend just installed his (FE Specialties) full roller 302 / stroked to 338 with a stroker kit in his Unique. It has dual carbs, 10:1 compression, with ported GT40 heads, aluminum flywheel. I had no idea that a well-built 302 could run and pull so hard... Man. I have a 550hp 428CJ in my ERA. His stroker 302 is 435HP in his Unique. Side by side, with his car weighing in around 150lbs lighter than mine, its a pretty close race... What amazed me is how quick his motor revs and snaps. He hits that pedal and BANG, its gone. His idle is actually smoother than my car too. Just an observation to pass along on a recent comparison...
