Yep, same owner of the 302 Powered 4A modified. 
I was not planning to repower the 4A, but a 347 all aluminum stroker engine made itself available to me at a proce I couldn't refuse.  The 302 I have been running for the past 5+ years came from a wrecked Mustang project I bought with minimal documentation on the engine build.  It has been running really well, but has shown a bit of oil consumption and increasing lifter noise, so it had to come out anyway. The quote HP for the 347 (with full build records) is stupid high, so some detuning is planned.  I should get the new engine later this month and will update after I get started.  Not sure yet what I will do with the 302.

December 28 update- English and gearbox came out today, always sounds so easy. Fortunately, we found very few surprises- one of the most concerning was the discovery that two of the motor mount bolts had sheered. We will be using higher grade bolts when the 347 is slotted in!
I have added a few pics of today's progress, and one of the Dan Masters style motor mounts we fabricated for the 302 - will also work with the 347.
