[tkb289]

My understanding is that the 289 Block and 302 Block are virtually identical, one minor difference being the skirt length in the 302 Block is a bit longer than what is in the 289 Block.

As stated above, a sound 302 short block with a decent cam and good heads would make a fine Cobra motor for a small block car. That's just the recipe I am looking for to use in my ERA. CobraED ... thanks for the articles!
