What are your overall goals?


THis is what I would like to end up with in the end.

1) carbed engine

2) headers

3) HP to be a little more than a stock 302

4)Tranny that will hold up to HP

5)exhaust to exit just in front of rear wheels

I am basically looking for advice on the best way to achieve a FRESH motor in this car (buy a fresh long block and do the rest myself,buy a old tired motor and have it rebuilt.......etc.)

I can install a intake,carb,headers,ignition system......etc. its the internals that I cant do.

I just need advice on the best route to take to get me there.

I am not real concerned about my tranny (c5) blowing out,if it blows out,then I will go get a c4 and put it in.

Actually your car being an 83 v6 car should already have a carb.  These engines are at a local junkyard so I don't have any pictures.


It should be EEC-III with CFI unless it was built for export.

I didn't think the V6's came with the EEC-III system.. only the V8's.

The top end is what you want to make of it, but IF I were to go brand new on a budget stroker shortblock, this is the way I'd do it.

Well I had a roller 302 rebuilt for my T-bird (bored .030 over, new pistons, rods, cleaned up crank, Comp cam, GT40P heads ect) and it cost me ~$1,900. I had the machiene shop assemble it because, well, he gave me a two year warranty on it if I let him do it:hick:

I picked up my engine today and now I will be getting into the swap soon.

I will be looking for advice as I do this,so I am warning you now,there will be some real stupid questions being ask.

the last two picks are of the engine running on the "generic" engine stand.
