why not stay with a 302, i mean stock truck longblocks are nothin special an i thought they werent even roller motors but again i could be wrong. why not stay 302? you would need headers an stuff to swap it on..jmo

i wanna do a 351c in a notchback but 4bolt main, 4v heads an a nasty nasty cam over 600lift. you can find these motors if you look around. stock heads flow pretty good. just a thought but good luck an i see no problems with a one car garage as i did my motor swap in the capri in a small barn lol

he wants to do boost eventually and a stock block has cracked at as little as 270rwhp might as well do it once

351 blocks are holding up to as much as 600rwho on stock internals and 800rwhp with forged goodies

another piece of advice dont buy your engine hoist from harbor freight. Mine seems like all the angles are wrong and it tips over every chance it gets..
