Hi, all you have to do is change the crank, just like the 302 to 331 stroker.

I forgot to tell you.. I'm not sure about this but 351C blocks are a little different from 351Ws, it might need some machining to fit the crank.

The block obviously needs to be machined, which calls for a complete stroker kit. Pistons, Rods, and crank. Go with a 408 instead.

If you are gonna go over 400ci, how about a 427ci? you can use extra torque over the 408ci plus a legendary name.<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley16.gif border="0">

Cause the max you can go with 351s is 427, 514 is a 460 block stroker, in this case you can go up to 600ci!! about 10 liters!! just imagine having all that torque between the fenders of your Mustang! BUT.. you need some serious suspention, serious trans,... all serious to handle all that power, in my opinion, you don't need all that torque, 427 is more than enough, you can have 500+ horsepower easily with street heads and pump gas without the extra cost of 460 block and parts. One more thing: with a heavy engine like that, you will have very bad handling.
