Excaliber, can you show that any 302 ACTUALLY had the deeper cylinder wall?
I've read somewhere (I believe Dave Williams webpage on the net) that the 302 blocks weren't actually built that way. They WERE somewhat designed like that as drawings of the block in 1967 showed the 302 should have a deeper skirt. But actually measuring countless blocks showed that 302 and 289 blocks were the same.
I'm not an engine builder so I haven't measured any myself, but have read that it's a common myth.
The bore is the same, the stroke is different.

I hope this post makes sense as I'm half asleep.
