Default 351 question.

Can a stock 351 fit into a 95 5.0 gt? if this has already been posted just point to where it's at, i'll go from there.

Other question, is a 302 2 or 4 main bearings?

302 = 2 bolt main stock. yes a 351 will fit in your 95 gt. for specifics you might want to post in 351 section. there is a sweet write up on how to make it fit and work and all that is needed for the conversion, i dont remember what site it is, ill see if i can find it.

most 302 blocks are 2 bolt but there is always the very rare boss 302 block and it was a 4bolt

hood clearences and your headers will more than likely hit the steering shaft.

if you buy the correct parts it should be fine

no any 351 will work if you have the proper parts.

that cobra r and the s351r and r code were just factory mustangs that came with the 351
