    I might actually have to cancel my order and just move on.
    I feel your pain. It is extremely expensive to source parts from the US but I wouldn't get discouraged. Keep an eye on Kijiji (there are several 302's on there right now), plus transmissions, differentials, etc. Sourcing parts in Canada is a bit of an Easter egg hunt but can also be part of the enjoyment of the build process. Right now (over the winter) is a great time to be collecting parts and prices tend to be lower. I'd also plan on a carb vs EFI to save some money. These cars run fine here on a carburetor. Find yourself a 600-650 Holley double pumper with a manual choke and you will be fine. Feel free to PM me if I can be of help. Scott
