There are 3 x 5L Chevs, and people often confuse them: 302, 305 and 307. 302 is a 4" bore, short stroke - (same bore/stroke as a 302 Windsor or Cleveland) uses the stroke of the 283 Chev and the bore of the 350. 305 is a large stroke, small bore - same st Edited by user Thursday, 22 March 2007 6:04:05 PM(UTC)
