Ford 302/351 swap info
#4
they are virtually the same. 351W vs 302, only difference really is deck height and front accessories
its about 1" wider up top and 1" higher, thus many mustang with this swap just need dropped motor mounts to fit under stock hood.
Blocks are much better...hold 700-800rwhp reliably versus the stock roller 302 holding roughly 500rwhpish
hope this helps

i had a 79 ranger, 2wd, 302 with 31's in the rear and 28's in front (lol) and that thing screamed! if i end up doing a engine swap (thinking more for mud), might try and find a junked 302 h.o. efi.

im goina do this... i just need to finish up school (done in march) get a job (hopefully march) and start buyin the parts... hello 351...
I am interested in what the f250/350 4wds had for axles... thinkin bout usin them for the runner.... fords a left or right drop.
nother thing that crossed my mind... think i could take a full size front axle, narrow it only on the long side, enough to center the diff and be the width of a runner for rear steer while im at it?
hello the never ending hole in the mud into which i pour money

ok, 79 was the last year of the solid axle front end in your f100's, the f250's were still soild axle the axles were dana 44 in the front and ford 9inch in the rear.the f350's depending on if it was desil or gas, the gas still used the same axles as the 250's, but the desils used dana 60's in the front and either a 9in or a corperate 14 rear. trannys were c6 all the way up to the early 90's, but they also used a aod, c4 and another that i cant remember but the aod is a good tranny if you have it built this tranny is fords answer to chevys 700r, your c6 comes in 2 bell houseing big block and small block, so pay attension to what you buy. as far as the 351w goes, i have a ford bronco that has a built351w in it and it was dynoed at 625hp. that sumbitch hauls ass.. lock it in 4 low and it is unstopable..
