PERFECT ive been looking for swap instructions just like that. Im slowly buying the parts to make a 302 351 W swap sick. SVO Yates Style Heads Eagle Steel Rods, Factory Steel Crank. Hydraulic roller cams, Hypereutectic Speed Pro pistons, and 11 lbs of boost should be enough power.

for any kind of forced induction or nitrous you will need forged pistons.

Wow. Thats a really good website. You should check out one of the links it had on there for www.jason.fletcher.net. That was such a great site. Lots of very useful tech articles and How-To's. Nice find

5) The higher deck height means the headers sit up higher than in a 302 powered Mustang. A special set is required for a 351.
Sorry to revive the topic. When they say a special set of headers is required are they talking custom headers, or is there a company that makes these?

EDIT: A little research goes a long way. I found that BBK makes 351W swap headers for the 79-93 Fox Mustangs.

Pretty much any company that makes parts for a 302 usually makes parts for a 351
