If you haven't learned this yet, you will....

Good news everyone! So i've convinced my buddy that's a mechanic to help me rebuild the 302! It's a good friend of mine so all the labor will be paid for with beer (lots of it ) and Pizza!!!!!!!! So now i can start planning out where i'm going with this finally.... @ TechInspector....those parts you listed earlier...would they make my redline at least 8000rpm? Just kinda want to get an idea....i'm picking up a motor stand on Monday and will begin with the teardown....this way at least i know what coming out and whats going to be going back in....I'm wondering if it's going to cost a sufficient amount more $ to get the motor to 400 hp.......is there a comlete kit available as far as internals go...one that has everything.....don't know anything about compression or other specific data so i'd prefer to just buy a package deal....but planning all the internals seperately will require a very big helping hand.
