these guys are right. There are hundreds of show stoppers you encounter putting an engine in a car it was not supposed to be in. Why a 351M? You should at best put a 302 in the car so you can purchase bolt on parts for your swap. 90% of a 351M swap will have to be fabricated by the builder. The headache you will encounter is not worth the (guessing here) free motor. Go 302, or buy a car with a v-8 in it already.
