I got a 351 windsor handed to me for free! im in pretty good shape as far as money since i didnt have to buy the motor and the stang was cheap . my question is what should i do build the car and motor to work with eachother or should i go another route. Thier is so much to do with these cars im really new to all of this so i need help. I want it as a street car but it will be dragged some . Thanks

There are many ways you can go with this. What year is the block? If it is a 1994 or newer its a roller block, which is the best in my opinion (early 70's are the best for strength)
I am very partial to a 408 stroker (see my sig) You will need to upgrade the tranny and rear end to support the power, upgrade the suspension to get it to hook, add subframe connectors to keep it together, etc...
Biggest thing is have fun with it and drive it like you stole it!!

so u r saying use the motor no matter what ? and as far as suspension,tranny, and subframe connectors what will be the best ?
Need more info. What is your intentions with the car? Road race? Street? Street/Strip? Strip only?
Hard to give suggestions if there is little info on your goals. Plus, if street or street/strip what are your ET goals and do you want to do this on engine or with a power adder(nitrous, super charger, turbo)

X2 on more info needed. I am building my car for 1/4 mile racing so everything is set up for drag racing. If you want to roadrace, that would be a different set up.
