Default 302-351?????

Does anybody know, if a 351 clevlend with bolt up in my 88 gt with no problems? And if the throttle body and intake will bolt up to the 351.
Also would i be better off to just but port and polished 351 heads on my 302 or go with a 351, and if i go with a 351 should it be a clevlend, or a windsor, i'v also heard that 351 clevend heads won't fir on my 302 is this true???
Thanks,
buddy

It takes a lot of work to install 351C heads on any Windsor block. It really isn't worth while with the heads that are available for the Windsor engines.

No, the 351C is not a bolt in transplant. You would be better off with a 351W, but you will still need the complete engine with a new intake and the accessory belt drive, as well as the right oil pan for your car.

The easiest solution would be a 347 stroker, as it would look exactly like your current engine, but will have the cubes of these 351's. There are several companies that will sell you a long block as a kit or assembled.
