Right now I have a 302 in my 67 coupe, the headers sit low as it is, if I put a 351 or a larger engine what kind of problems am I going to run into as far as engine compartment space...

I've pulled the carb and cleaned it before and never had that much gas come out of it and alot went into the intake when...

    Gas in the oil!!!

    Best 351w?

    darn, the guy selling the block wont ship it. So that one is out of the question. Thanks for the link. I went to a local speed shop but the guy at the counter just kinda snickered and said he doesnt deal with 351w because nobody wants that engine. All the guys who work their are kind of down...
