Default DID I JUST BUY A COBRA JET ENGINE

OK so I just bought a crap load of parts for my 67 Mustang in the barn this guy had a 351c I do not know a lot of history on the 351c. So I might be excited over nothing. ran the casting #(D2AE-Ca) and it came back as an 1972 cobra jet HO 351c. to me that just sounds awesome. Paid $300 it and a lot of body parts and chrome.
Or are all the 351c this kind of engine.

No, it's worthless. I'll take it off your hands for you.

If the block is a D2AE-CA stamp then it's a 4 bolt Cleve block.

As long as it isn't lunched then you did good.


Real good.
