There is a 351 section, you should be able to find a lot there.

In the middle of the swap now.
Nothing hard, but lots of little frustrations to work thru.

But you just got the 302 together? WTF?
What you doing now man? You selling the intake and stuff for it?
Personally i want to go with a 351 also....just doing what Ford should have done in the first place IMO.

All the old parts are all already sold. AFR 165's and BBK intake went quick
We dropped the 351W in tonight and started running new braided fuel lines and
putting accessories back on.
Wasnt happy with 302, so said ***** it.................... and started in on the 5.8L
Should be really nice.......... expecting 425-450 flywheel horsepower with the combo listed in my sig.
Here she is

haha, you go with a roller motor? Or an old flat tappet block?
I agree with you, i'd exspect 430-450hp also. You oughta got Carb'd, you'd probably pick up 40hp with just a carb swap. Cheaper to.
But i would imagine you drive the car often enough not to want a carb, but just for the hell of it, we just did a carb conversion on my buddies 87GT and its his DD, he still gets decent mileage, but he's got 3.27 gears.
