It's a 302 that was made in mexico, what more do you want to know? Just a normal motor. Why are you posting it here anyways?

On the lifter valley it'll say Hecho en Mexico (Made in Mexico)

mexican blocks are stronger than the standard 302 blocks. I have a friend pushing nearly 600 rwhp through a prepped 1968 mexican 302 block with no reliability issues. its a lot beefier and a cheap alternative to a dart or boss block.

I had a friend making 708rwhp with a turbo, but it finally gave up the ghost. Stock crank and rods, too.

Went 6.0x @ ~116!
