Default 351 question

I am trying to figure out exactly what I have. The number on the block is E9AE-6015-AA-7. I know that it is a 1989 block but I don't know if it is an 351W or 351M. I can't figure out what the 7 at the end of the block number is.

Where do you feel the shake? The steering wheel? the seat of your pants? the gas pedal? Just changing out your intake isn't going to cause a vibration. What else did you do at the same time?

Did you do anything other than removing the intake and installing the new one? An intake swap is not going to cause the vibration.

you should take that intake off, violently place it in the trash, and put something else on. The SSI is well known for being a piece of ****.
