Default 351w

I have been playing with the idea of puttin a 351w in my car , i have some good heads to put on it ( procomp 64cc / 190cc 2.05I 1.60E ) and my XE274hr out of my 302, and a aod built like a brick, what do i need to buy to put the motor in and will my Power Steering and all my acess bolt on? will my dizzy and headers work on the motor? will my tranny bolt up? i know i would have to get a vic jr made for a 351 and get a 750 dp carb , i was planing on just having a stock bottom.


OR JUST DO A 347 STROKIN!!

351w bolts right in. You'll need to get some special accessory brackets to get all of those bolted up. The 351w has it's own special distributor and I *think* you'll ned new headers. Your tranny will bolt right up.

You will need a new set of headers, lower manifold, distributer, etc. There is a sticky on this in the 351W section. Check it out.

I'm not posative, but if the 351w block is not a roller cam i dont think that cam will work in it. i might be wrong though. hopefully someone else will chime in and let you know for sure.

Default RE: 351w

you just have to use those $300+ linked lifters

forget the 347.

you will need

p/s - a/c bracket ( Ford )
crank pulley spacer (Ford )
swap oil pan ( Ford )
swap headers ( BBK shorties here )
351 dizzy ( shaft is longer )

recommend:
hardened ARP oil pump drive shaft
windage tray
ARP assymbly bolts/studs

btw: all the smog and EGR stuff will take some serious
effort to keep. Can be done, but its tight in the engine bay now.
Might have to pull engine to get to #8 spark plug and we
had to install the motor with headers on cause cant get to back bolts
