i dont think so, you'd need a bellhousing from a big block. while these are boat anchors in the weight department the heads still flow better than alot of aftermarket windsor heads. yeah the compression is low and that sucks, but throw a "rv" cam in there (somthing in the .450 -.475 lift range) and that motor will make gobd of low end power which is right where you want it when the light turns green

I wouldn't worry about it, when i run the numbers or even look at the engine again. If it shows a sign of 351M-400 on it, rest for sure I'm not getting it, matter of fact, imma check my tranny bolts and if they don't match, f*ck it.

I'm tired of people trying to screw me over. I wish someone would just tell the truth right off the bat. I may not know it now, but when it comes to my money.... STOP ****ING LYING!!! Someone please lead me in the right direction, where can I purchase a real 351W motor wheter ****ted up or ready for whomping. I am wanting to purchase a 351 motor. I might buy the damn 351M just because i'
m tired of having a 302

you guys now how that is.

used motor = any local junkyard.
new motor = summit, jegs, ebay, etc

the w is easy to spot dude, it looks JUST LIKE THE 302 but its a little wider.

Where are you located? I can get a 351W shortblock from my local junkyard chain for $100.

DO NOT use stock length pushrods. you will need to measure and check
and buy the right length.
