I`m looking for a fresh 302 (5.0) engine for my friend. He has a 67 mustang that he`s needing it for. Any newly built 302 from 68-95 will work. He currently has a 289 that is in need of a complete overhaul, but he would rather just buy another longblock or shortblock to replace it. Even a freshly machined block would be good. Just let me know if you have something for sale.

actually i'm pretty sure the only time it's ever been done is for the movie. the money involved to pay someone to custom fab parts would be insane, unless you were amazing at that kinda shit.

cept caleb's rx-7 which is a huge exception to the rule.
