I'm looking for 351 swap info
 
Hi all,
I tried doing a search of past postings but was unsuccessful in finding what I was looking for. Does anyone know where I can find a website or other info on swapping a 351W into a 95 Mustang GT. I would expect that since the two engines are pretty much similar, except for the height of the block, that it would be a pretty straight forward swap. Has anyone here performed this swap?
Thanks

I've done it before, ask away.

EVERYTHING is a direct boltin, you just need a different intake. Trickflow makes one for EFI.

I've have discovered
 
a few sources of information concerning this swap, since I posted this question, however, the one thing I have not found is any comments on the results.

No before/after comparision. No ET results. No seat of the pants comments.

So what do you think of the results?
Thanks

It's worth it in every aspect of the game.

Any of the 351W strokers will put 400 and change at the tires, no matter the combo.

They run like hell on the track also, great power with even better torque to get off the line.

Sounds like
 
the perfect swap. Thanks for the comments. I do appreciate it.

I build a 393 stroker for my fox, on with a lightning GT40, ported E7's and a alphabet cam it dynoed mid 380's at the tires.

I later upgraded to a FTI custom grind cam, AFR 205's, and upgraded to the Trickflow 351W EFI intake - no dyno numbers but jesus did that car move.

I ran down a H/C/I/bottle LS1 that was from 60-160. He started with about 3 cars on me (i gave him a big head start) and at 160 he was about 2 cars back.

Later I put a vortech on it, never dynoed it but it was just stupid... plain stupid. I upset a SRT10 viper that had paper plates on it, couldn't have been but minutes old.

i sold it almost 2 weeks after the blower went on... to this day i have no clue why.

so im building the same setup, with modular parts, to go in my 01 GT.

Trust me - do it you will never regret it. I believe the 94-97 blocks were roller, and all the lightnings.

the 302 and the 351 are very different. thats why theres no comparison. if you have the room/buget for a 351, go for it. or stay 302.
