They are 2 different 351 designs 302's and 351W's are both windsor small block fords. So I'd think that either the cranks or the bore size is the same..... I am so tired, I'll just stop yabbering and do some reading I'll PM you those links to the summit stuff in a bit, sorry for the delay. 2005 Ford F150 SuperCab FX4 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS 1998 CSVT: 354HP/328TQ @ 10 psi, now gone

I can check and see if my ex-boss has any heads. Let me know. 98 E0 SVT with some stuff

What's the reason for the 351 block, heads, etc, but the 302 pistons? What's the cubic inch result? Compression result?

Actually, the Cleveland heads WILL fit, with just a little modification. The 4V heads flow very well, almost too much for a mild street engine. The ports are huge on these heads. They are great for higher RPM power. The 2V heads are good too, IMO, the best choice for a street engine. These make much better low end torque. And yes, the Winsor blocks are almost identical, with just a different deck height. Check out the Mustang mags. 347 and 357 stroker kits are becoming very affordable and make great power -Ken V. 1998.5 SE Praire Tan Zetec ATX psycho_bass@hotmail.com Roush springs Roush rear sway bar BAT struts 17" Millie Miglia HT3 and a ton of subtle asthetic mods

It has been a while for me and FoMoCo small blocks so I need those who have a clue to help me out on this.
