Thinking of a 351 swap...

Thats a sick motor! Are you guys running 2v heads? Any machine work done to them? What cam?
Also as far as the swap goes, whats everything i would need? Headers, pan/pickup, can i use the solid motor mounts that are on my 306 or would i need to buy new motor mounts?

I have 2V ported heads and the notch has 4V ported heads. We both use 205 dollar pistons and very budget stuff. Even though we have slightly different heads and the notch has a bigger carb too, the engine in the notch sounds exactly like the one in my white car.

302 and 351 Windsor and 351 Cleveland share the same motor mounts, tranny bolt pattern and starter. Headers from heddman for a Cleveland in a fox and a rear sump oil pan from many different manufaturers will do. My car and the notch have Canton pans and can be purchased at summit racing.

can you use the 302 head on a 351c i know you can on a 351w but i know the clevland is stronger and i only want to build it once my goal is to use my complete top end on the motor minus the lower intake part.

The only way you will get a better 302 or 351W head than a Cleveland head is to buy after market heads. A factory Cleveland 2V(meaning 2 Barrell carb cylinder head) is much better than any factory 302 or 351W head. Then there is the 4V Cleveland head(4 barrell carb version) they have factory 245cc intake ports and flow somewhere around 280 CFM stock. Not bad for a head designed 41 years ago.
