Good choice..... the 302 is the easiest V8 swap to pull off in a 240. And dont mind Jspec

Ford Explorer mounts? The 90's V8 explorer mounts bolt right in.

jspeck - Lol it's cool dude
I found out the explorer mounts work after I made mine then I decided to keep the mounts I made cause it let's me keep the motor low enough to keep the stock hood on it with a decent size carb. Eventually I want to do an eaton supercharger.
