todmeg Gearhead Posts: 324 From: sayreville,nj Registered: Apr 2001	posted 09-07-2002 10:21 AM well the 75 2 door i bought has a nasty rod knock, which i knew when i bought the car. (the rest of the car is good so i went for it anyhow.) i have some reliable connections in the local wrecking yard business. the chances of finding a 302 with a carb by now must be slim but the EFI 302s should be easy to find. is it a major project to remove the EFI and switch to carb? not looking to build up the motor. maybe a 4 barrel and dual exhaust. headers if todd is nice to me. he is going to drive the car eventually and i don't want the car to fly. i know the first time i drove my dads" 350 nova i punched it. thanks ------------------ scott todds' dad(19fordmav72) another Warsteiner lover. and warsteiner isn't all that expensive! also.. you can run but you can't hide!
