So I found a complete 351w with all acc. and whatever else I want (I have to pull it, its in a truck) for $125

Im working on putting together a parts list on what ill need to get, its going into a Fox,

so far I have the ford racing oil pan

and the ford racing intake here (the engine is FI right now)

other than that im going to see if theres a carb at the shop I work at (we have a shipping container full of stuff, theres a shelf of carbs)

and Im going to try to use the stock exhaust manifolds

should that about be it?

im not sure yet if im going to use a T5 or a C4 (?), and the car is going to be caged before its driven

edit: I bought last fall a new distributor for the 302 I was building, will it work or will I need to get a new one for a 351w or go to the scrapyard and take a look for one?

 

theres a sticky up top that migth be able to help ya out a lil more

 

exactly check the sticky

 

oil pan, headers, ........... Ah f*ck it. read the sticky!

 

I dd read the sticky, can I not use the headers and just use a few inches of the y pipe off of the truck then make my own exhaust , or is it really too high up that it wont go under?

 

i would just say spend the money and get some bbk shorties i think they are under 300 for the crome ones and you will run into alot less troubles because the 351 swap headers are designed to match up with stock/aftermarket h/x pipes same thing goes for long tubes the work with the normal long tube h pipe

 

Ill have to see what I think whenever it gets dropped in, the cars going to have duals on it

 

shorties? on a 351? are you serious?

nevermind i cant even say anything else on that one

 

they do exist though?

Id want long tubes for the sound though

 

i didnt say shorties were a good idea i just said they exist
