I always thought it was the other way around...i.e. the Cleveland suffered from lack of low end of torque.
Doug: The Boss 302 is the original Clevor! Ford basically took the 289 Hi-Po (4-bolt mains, Mechanical lifters, forged rotating assembly) block, stroked it to 302, and mounted the 351 4V Cleveland heads onto it. The only reason you need the Track Boss intake is if your doing the 351W to Cleveland "Clevor". If you're going to build you're own 302 Cleveland, you could take a 302W block, modify the water passages, and bolt up the Cleveland heads to it. Any Boss 302 intake should then bolt up no problem.
Why are you limiting yourself to the 2V heads? From what I've seen and read, the Edelbrock 3V offers the best of all worlds. The streetability of the 2V, the high rpm breathing of the 4V, without the price and rarity of Aussie 3V's.
Mike: The 347 might not be such a bad idea....I just checked Ford Racing's website and they have a Boss 347 shortblock in the pipeline.
