Sorry i still have questions
Things to remember about a 351 Cleveland:
1. small block bellhousing bolt pattern.
2. Block itself is patterned after a 385 series, ie 351M, 400, 429/460
3. Made to replace the small block, ie same motor mounts, bellhousing, etc etc.
4. Cleveland heads WILL fit on a 302/351 with minor massiging, and a custom intake. (Find a set of 4V Cleveland heads!!!)
5. DRY intake manifold, shared with the 385 series. Windsor blocks 260/289/302/351W have a WET intake manifold, they have coolant passages in the intake, and the top radiator hose comes right off of the intake.
6. 8 valve cover bolts. Windsors have 6.
7. Deck height is SHORTER than a 351W. W is 9.5", C is 9.2"
8. HUGE "Old school Ford" cool points if you're running a Cleveland!
Great motor, low production numbers. Not many aftermarket parts.
