what are the advantages (and possibilities) of destroking a 302 ford to make
a 260? as compared to using the 255 block to begin with. I understand the
255 bore is pretty small 3.68, but has the same stroke. Just theory wise
wouldn't it be better to have the 4.0 bore of the 302 and whatever short
stroke is required to reach 260? Obviously I'm thinking of a "E" class
motor, 260 max. I also understand a stock 260 is actually a little over the
limit.
Phil
