Re: 1967 Chev 302 parts choice question
Rory, I would contact Dwight Southerland (forum member). He would be a wealth of information on this combo. Hope this helps.

The early 68 Z/28s used the small journal crank & block also, we had one & raced it as a stocker in the early 80s

Re: 1967 Chev 302 parts choice question
Duzac and Peterson, the Wenzel brothers ....................................
The thing to do would be to get a small journal BowTie block. No spacers required. If they are going to allow aftermarket cranks, perhaps Eagle might be convinced to make a small journal 3" stroke crank. The legal castings are : 462,041,186,492,291 The intake you need is a 3917608 You can use the new Quick Fuel carburetor. You probably want to pick a cylinder head guy, and have him tell you what heads he wants, then buy 3-4 pairs so he can pick through them. Welcome to the asylum, and good luck.

Re: 1967 Chev 302 parts choice question
Bowtie block with spacer bearings.
A 283 crank is good. Look for forging # 236. Heads - be careful. There are good heads and there are not-so-good heads. The original big-valve 462 and 291 heads are good. The 041 may have some benefits. The intake casting is 610; 608 was the part number. Aftermarket, aftermarket, aftermarket as much as possible. |

Re: 1967 Chev 302 parts choice question
Rory do what real engine builders do when building a stocker motor.Get your self a large journal crank and have it cut down to small journal.

Re: 1967 Chev 302 parts choice question
Jeff Lee, crank spacers are legal with bowtie and dart block, Alan Roehrich they don't make bowtie or dart small journal blocks, look up rod specs on approved parts. Tom
