a 351w is a 351w

the issue will come down to $1000 in parts to swap it over.


Headers

Upper Intake Manifold.

Lower Intanke Manifold

Distributor with hardened gear.

Motor Mounts for a Convertible

Aftermarket Oil Pan

Engine Rebuild Kit, i cant stress this enough, any used engine should be torn apart and inspected/rebuilt by you, rings, bearings, honing, gasket packages.

dont let it bother you, all those extra cubes will put a BIG grin on your face
