It's not all about fit, more so about ratio options,ring gear size and what's your HP/TRQ from the 302.

Check out this URL to get you thinking. (still fabrication needed)

Subaru R160 LSD

How about a Nissan R200, 300z, I'm running one in my 5.0 TR6 and another LS1 Tr6 is running one. I would go with a short nose differential.

Maybe the Ford 8.8, Miata V8's have been using this swap for years.
