Default 351 in a 1990 GT

Hey guys, got my hands on a 1974 casting of a 351 Windsor block. Before I buy it, will there be any fitment issues to the manual transmission in the 1990 GT project car? I head heard that the pre-1976 (I think) blocks were different. Also, will the heads from the 1990 302 (GT40 heads) fit onto that vintage 351. Again, heard that may be a problem.

Thanks all,

John

This was a special car to my heart, the 1990 Ford EA Falcon GT 351 Windsor V8 concept car as it was shown around the motor shows then disappeared, well the late Adrian Ryan and some help from insiders from Ford, took this and put it away as Ford Australia wanted it crushed, after many years later and long forgotten, it was returned when the Discovery Centre Opened.

Post this question in the Fox/SN forum, you'll get more responses that make sense. Sorry, not familiar with the changes to the 351 blocks. Or just use the search, I'm sure it's been asked before. Good luck
