Flow tech 302 headers will not fit on a 351..They will not fit between the shock towers and the engine...Ive tried it..
you will have to get some kinda special headers for the 351,either that or,i hear some manifolds will work..
: it is a strait drop in the 351 uses the same motor mounts, radiator, trans, accesories and headers. the only things you will have to change are the belts the accessories sit farther apart(heads are wider) and the radiator hoses.
: : I'm going to build 351W and want to swap-out w/302W. Any help/information on problems/hassles greatly appreciated. Where to get: mounts, headers, radiators. Have auto trans w/351. Will build it up also. Going for 400 to 425hp. Will install in '72 Grabber. Also have disc brake set-up off '76 Stallion to install. Any help there will be great also. Engine & trans out of early to mid '70s full size car. Parts and building 351 no problem, just need help with swap. I'm located in south-east Texas, near Houston. ttyl. GPJack.
