hi all just picked myself up a 302 from an EB that im planning on rebuilding, now rang a few places close to me an a gasket kit ranged from $215-$280 an a piston ring kit was $250-$320. so went on ebay to check prices from the states ect an theres a user on there that sells many piston ring kits for 302s but there all different specs an i have no clue what the stock specs are for a 302. the link below is to the users store an i was hoping someone could take a look an tell me if hes selling one to suit a EFI 302. also ive posted another link below to a gasket kit that doesnt say whether its for a carby or EFI 302 (if theres a difference between the 2) that i was hoping someone could tell me if it will suit aswell. hope that makes sense lol cheers in advance

You are not going to know what you need until you strip the engine down & measure the block. Does it require an overbore, or are the bores good enough to just give a hone & fit new rings?

Cheers
