I have a question for you domestic guys.

The old mustangs used the 302 which is the 5.0 right?

The question is which one is better to build a project with? which is easier to work with?

if you any links that you don't mind sharing it would be mostly appreciated!


thanks
 
Je suis loin d'etre un expert en mécanique,mais je sait qu'en général les moteurs V8 a carburateur était tres facile a modifier et a travailler dessus et le cout des pieces relativement bas alors moi j'opterait pour un bon vieux V8 a carburateur salut.
 
Any 5.0 carb or F/I is basically easy to work with , thanks to a very healthy aftermarket supply for these engines ,all it depends on is your wallet size !!



IMO, I still thin the Best bang for the buck for some-one doing their first engine though, would have to be a basic carbed 302/5.0 package .

Look for a true H.O. block from 82 up, add some 87 up roller heads,nice dual plane intake,600 cfm carb and some equal length headders . With a nice rebuild/clean up you'll have an easy 200+ hp .
