I have a friend that i am getting a 302 from. I know I will have to get better springs up front. Then I know I will have to get a 8.8 rear end. My question is do I have too get a new transmission. I have an 03 V6 automatic transmission(because i have handcontrols)

Oh by the way it is an 85 302

that 302 is/was carb'ed so ur gonna have to convert it to efi aswell

new tranny will be needed im pretty sure because 302 is pre t5...wait you said auto.

i'm sure it'd have been easier if it were a manual, but i think you'll need a new transmission, so get a manual while your at it and maybe a new ecu?

Does anyone know if there is a bellhousing someone makes for the 302 so it would hook up too my transmission

You could get one made...I'm trying to remember the people who make some good ones, I've been talking to them about a new bellhousing for a truck I'm working on...
