Do your homework first on the complete replacement cost for all of the associated engine components. My buddy spent a long time getting all correct components for his 454 and spent a ton of money doing it. If the 402 runs reliably at least you can drive your car. I have never heard of anyone ever calling a 402 a performance engine so I would guess you aren't going to get much for it when you get the correct components.

yeah its not looking like tis worth a whole lot but if I can keep it and drive it like it is then it will work.

and yes it can get expensive finding the correct motor but the rest of the car looks really good for its age so I think its a good canidate for a resto
