351 Engines

[Pitbull]

I'm looking for an engine for my project, can someone tell me if a 351C (70-74) has the same motor mount locations as a 351W (70-74)? Mustang forums seem to have mixed answers. Much Appreciated

i was told by FFR that they didn't support a 351C in the roadster, not sure of what the differences are, mounts, exhaust ???

The engine mounts and the block configuration are different in the 351 C.

And yet . . . a couple hundred thousand early Mustangs could be fitted with either a Windsor - or - a Cleveland engine without changing the chassis . . . different mounts, different exhaust but placed in the frame in the exact same location.

Things that make you go; Hmmmmmmmm?

Do a search for owners that are running Boss 302's or 351C engines. Try both forums.
