good starting point
 

have a chance to get a 351m out of a 79 bronco.is this a good block to build on?how much hp could it handle?any info would be awesome thanks

dont bother with the 351m, good truck engine dont get me wrong, but for strictly performance they are lacking. they have a really low compression ratio around 8-1 which is horrible for performance. stick with a windsor or a cleveland, and dont confuse the cleveland with the m they are radically different animals. any other questions just ask
