a 302 was a 3.00 stroke crank,with a 4.00 bore block..  it used 5.7 chevy rods..and the pistons cost a small fortune... it was ok..yes high rpms.but very low torgue. no real reason to build one, unless it was to put a car back to original..  in my own opinion..it is wayyyyyyyyyy to much to build.. for the power you will get. build the 327 instead..it is a 3.25 stroke, with a 4.00 bore block.it also uses the 5.7 rods.. pistons are reasonable.. and the power difference between the 302 and the 327 are amazing..
