Not much size difference. You trying to keep under the stock hood?
I may have missed it, but are you going to run the stock Contour front knuckles? For some reason I was thinking you are running the 240X knuckles... or maybe that is just the coilovers. I did read on page 2 that you had the Mustang knuckles, but I thought that was for the rear... I don't know lol.
Ideally. The 302 is also EFI and comes with the ECU/harness so I'm leaning that direction. I hope to be able to DD this car when complete and EFI is much more appealing to me in that regard.
There has been a lot of back-and-forth with regard to drive-train and suspension over the last few months. After doing some more research I discovered that the Escape 2WD rear hub used the same wheel bearing as the Contour, was a non-driven 5x114.3 bolt pattern damn near drop-in solution to converting the front end, so that's the route I've chosen to go. I did have to modify them slightly to mate to supporting components, but overall it was a cheap and easy solution, using 100% off the shelf Ford OEM stock parts, that I'm pretty happy with. I'm waiting on two more parts to come in and I'll have the knuckles built and in.
