my '86 had a '65 289 in it and just about everything on the motor would be interchangeable so are you 100% sure it is a 302 block, since the old 289 was made from the same style block as the 302 it was just a different bore and stroke, and from what I learned about ti I hear it is a stronger motor wit more power especialy if it was a "K" model 289 which came stock with 271HP!!!
