Some aftermarket heads won't work either as the head bolt size is 7/16 and 351's use 1/2...........

okay for my engine build if i choose to use a 351w and still use efi i found that trick flow makes intake manifolds but what about cams distributors all the other parts are they easy to find?

and does the 351w use same engine mounts as the 302? will it drop right in?
