A couple of questions??

[EarlsflyinCobra]

Before you go and yell at me about these being covered before I did try a search and got too many responses, both related and unrelated;

How do I decide what type and thickness of head gaskets I need??

What is the best distributor for the 302 engine??

Should I run 1 or 2 electric fuel pumps for a fuel injection application?? (1 as it comes out of the tank and 1 as it goes into the engine)

What type of ignition control unit is recommended??

Hi,
You NEED to 'O' ring the heads for blown 302 engines, use head studs instead of head bolts also.Fel pro makes an O ring head gasket that fits the tfs grooved heads.
The factory Ford tfi dist is best with the factory EFI, if you go with another system a duraspark dist will trigger it fine.
Msd makes a 6 BTM ignition box that retards timing as boost increases. Also you need a Vortec or Paxton FMU fuel regulator that increases fuel pressure as boost rises.
You only need 1 EFI fuel pump, has to be big enough to support your boost level, say 255 L/hr for up to 15 PSI.
I ran 8 psi boost and knocked 2 seconds off my 1/4 mile time, but the car overpowered the traction and would go sideways at 100 mph. Spend $$ on good suspension , a rollcage and tires.
Good Luck,
Perry.

Your head gasket thickness will affect your compression ratio. Have you had the engine built yet? I used ROL graphite head gaskets. I heard they were great for street engines. If I remember correctly, they have a 4.100" hole and they're .041" thick. You can get thicker ones or thinner ones depending on if you need to fudge your CR a little.

Distributor? MSD.

I would think one fuel pump would be plenty if you pick the right one. Get the one with the pressure and volume you need. Shouldn't need anything more.
