302 or 351w?

[Shaolin Crane]

LsX. I'll check back later. Have fun.

Little late to that party dude.

I'll be half-serious with this one: do a Clevor. Trick Flow just recently came out with some cool Clevor stuff.

 

[stykthyn]

Wow clevor takes me back about 40 years.

 

[1990_LX]

Let me know when you find one

Lol, I'm fairly sure most new Kenne Bells have more displacement than the whole 4 cylinder.

Wow clevor takes me back about 40 years.

Trick Flow just came out with a bunch of Cleveland junk including a EFI "R" intake that will work with their Cleveland heads on top of a Windsor short block with a conventional fuel rail. Sweetness.

Damn. Guess I should start reading threads instead of just posting ha

 

[Shaolin Crane]

Haha. But yes the answer is always lsx

You can always go turbo...Just sayin. But really I would say 351w all the way. I am already bored with my junk and am in the mindset that if I had done a 351 instead of the 302 I would be less bored and more happy.

Will a run of the mill freshened up T5 hold up fine to a cam/intake 5.8? Not going to be power shifting left and right, but not always granny shifting either. lol

 

[1990_LX]

Also, what pistons would come in a roller 351, hypers or cast?

 

[stykthyn]

depends what year block you got. the newer trucks will have hyper pistons.

 

[1990_LX]

That should be fine for me seeing how I have no plans for boost of nitrous.

Dont know what ur budget is but ur gonna need a bigger hood. may as well figure that in. Love my 351. Had 306 gt40 setup that was a **** load of fun too. It was a lot cheaper and ran 12.60's in a 2700 pound 86 notch.

 

[Shaolin Crane]

351 and solid motor mounts will clear the stock hood

 

[98gtvert]

Even with a carb set up? I could close it without the aircleaner but with it had to get a hood.

 

[98gtvert]

just read ur sig. shaolin, love the ls3 07. got any pics? I thought about an ls swap before i built the windsor.

Mine is hangin in there, not expecting it to last forever tho.

 

[ID89GT]

I have a hood scoop so my hood clears no problem on my 351 haha

 

[nibik91]

390, top loader.

Is the only problem with 302 L/Ts on a 351 is that the angle isn't right for them to bolt up to a mid pipe? As long as they don't hit anything then I could save money and just slightly modify a midpipe of even add to the collector a little bit however if it is way off I am not going to hack **** up to save a hundred or two.
