okay, we all know that while the engine choices for our cars are plentiful thehigh powered NA variety remains untapped. after seeing an LS1 powered 240 that gained LESS weight than an RB swapped machine i started thinking:

-ford's 302 is lighter and smaller than chevy's small block

-chevy's LS1 is lighter than the RB

-300 ft lbs tq is hard to argue with

-5.0's are more plentiful than KA's and especially SR's and even more so RB's

so here i am, on the fence trying to find information on a 302 swapped S13 that has to exist somewhere. custom motor mounts, tranny mount, oil pan, driveshaft.. whatever. i want dependable torquey NA power and short of finding a totalled/drivetrian intact Z33 it isn't gonna happen with a nissan powerplant.

after searching for days i can't find any 302 powered S13's.... anybody know anything? somebody else has to want some good ole pushrod V8 happiness... anybody?
