world windsor sr 200cc heads,patriot 180cc heads,are 2 i can think of off the top of my head. eagle I beams(under 300 bucks) are good on a budget and will hold up well and not weigh your rotating assembly down.if you want forged pistons which is a good idea for forced induction or nitrous Speed pro for around 350 bucks.If your gonna stay N/A you could get a set of hypereutectic pistons from Kieth Black (under 200 bucks)these pistons are also a little lighter than forged but less durable.All these parts are available from Summitracing.com

here are the part # eagle rods ESP-5956-FP or ESP-5956-FB dependind on press fit or bushed pin type.Speed pro forged pistons TRW-L2446F30 with a 63cc head will yield a 9.06CR and are press fit pistons.Kieth black hyper pistons UEM-KB124030-8 or UEM-KB151030-8 with a CR range of 9.7-11.5 .

302 parts makes 302 power.

You need big heads AFR 185 or Twisted Wedge Track Heat heads at least.
Find a used TFS-R and Edlebrock Victor 5.8 EFI for it.


I have some used AFR 185's sitting around for sale too. $950 shipped.
PM if interested.

I took a stock bottom end 351 with .030 over bore. 10-1 compression
with those AFR185 heads, $250 CompCams XFI "EFI stroker" cam .... made 475hp at 6,000 rpm on engine dyno. Have print out.

With longtubes and TFS-R intake it made high 300's rwhp.
Pulled like a son of b*tch
