    My name is Brad and I'm building a 5.0L/302. I am trying to decide what I am going to put it in, for foresight in the build. I am sending the block and heads to the machine shop, just to "clean'em'up". I am not trying to build a hotrod motor, whatsoever, and with my having a 302 Ford motor I think it's one of my best 'first builds'. I wonder if I can get my hands on a Maverick to work off of, planing exactly how I'm going to build it, and finally having something to put it in; just to get from point A to B. transportation.
