351 Swap

Hi guys! I just want to hear about people who have already did the 351 swap. I think the power difference is not very big between those two block but does that stay when you get on with the mod... which part of the 302 will fit on the 351... how is the fitting with the car and the manuel tranny. Thank you guy and have fun with the nice season comming!

Bonjour! That swap is not a difficult one and there are tons of resources online to help you out. There is a thread in our engine section on this exact topic. MMFF did the swap just last year (or so) and reused many parts off the 302. Good luck with your swap.

Most parts will go from 302 to 351 windsor minus the oil pan, and intake. Trans bolts right up.
If it is a 351 Cleveland, only the trans will bolt up.

Yeah, that will be a good swap since the 302, and 351 windsor share quite a bit of stuff together.
