I am also building a 302 for one of my camaros. It is an older chevy motor with nice high-revs.

The 302 does rev higher so if you are using TPI plan on some good aftermarket components. A mr or sr would probably help make the best use of the rpm's. dmair, dont you remember the 302dz motor in the camaros. It was used to comply with scca regs(under 305ci). Thats sounds like a pretty good price, what kind of heads, intake?
