There are 302 Clev's in Aussie land... A few year's back I'd have said stick with the Cleveland heads, but now there are so many excellent aftermarket heads for the Windsor's that you're probably better off staying with the Windsors.

I think FX hit it right on the head with his response and I agree 100%.[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img][img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img][img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img][img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Thanks for the advice fellas
apreciate it.

Another question: Some one told me the other day that a 302 cleveland has the same block as a 351 cleveland so they are strokable?
Anyone know if this is correct??

Yes the blocks are identical between the 302 + 351 clevos...
A nice setup is to use a 351 crank,use the longer 302 rods and get the shorter pistons to suit..
