If you are looking to upgrade that old, tired Ford 351 Windsor and bolt in extra horsepower this Ford 351W crate engine by Tuff Dawg Engines would be an EXCELLENT choice with 395hp @ 6000rpm and 393ft lbs of torque @ 4500rpm. This engine has a rough idle with enough cam to give it that muscle car sound but is still mild enough to be reliable for that everyday driver or restoration project. This engine works best with a 2500 stall speed converter if being used with an automatic transmission. This engine runs on leaded or unleaded premium pump fuel.

pass on it!! small heads, small cam and at that a flat tappet cam, with the removal of zddp in oils, flat tappets are not lasting long unless additive is used, that 351 won't deliver much more than a moderate built 302

I'm trading him 4 pony wheels, 4 10 hole wheels both have tires on them but no tread which he knows and my 8.8 which needs a new carrier which he also knows plus $400 cash so you saying it isn't worth that? I don't wanna waste any money... And no one answered my question will those head work with my gt40 intake?

mjr46

if you're putting the heads on a 302 you'll need spacers as they are 1/2 head bolt holes if you plan to use on a 351 they will work as long as your gt-40 intake is for a 351

I don't know I believe the gt40 is for 302 but I thought 351 & 302 were inter changeable parts?

A lot of parts are interchangeable, but unfortunately the lower intake is not one of them. The 351w is physically wider than the 302, so your GT-40 lower manifold won't work. You can, however, use a 302 upper with a 351w lower. I would try to go to a junkyard and pull a 351w lower from an f150/e150 if you can, save ya some change over aftermarket units
