If your having trouble believing it, then dont, cause u will be making more power than a stock 302. But keep in mind that those crappy E7's are gonna hold it back quite a bit. It wont be a monster by any means wit those heads.ok soo you all are saying that with a stage two trick flow cam, new springs in the heads and fresh motor in the car that with the stock heads on a 351 im only going to be able to put out the power of a 302? im having trouble believing that. i know the stock heads arent all that good and to get the most performance out of the motor i need the aluminum heads but from what i have read and talked to others that the stock heads will be fine for a while and i will only lose bout 50-75 hp from stock heads vs the aluminum ones. im running this intake edelbrock super victor. also im running the trick flow springs in the heads. i know now that i am not going to waste my money and time on porting the heads. i do agree with that but i am still having trouble getting around the fact that i will be putting out the power of a 302.
You'll probably be ok with stock size pushrods for GT40 irons since the GT40's are an oem head. I know you can swap GT40's onto a 302 without changing pushrods, the same would be true for 351.Isn't the deck taller on the 351 those reguiring a longer pushrod?
***edit...I see what you mean. the stock 351 pushrods that motor uses NOT my stock 302 pushrods..I was thinking you meant my stock 302 rods would work...Sorry not enough coffee
Can the water pumps interchange on the 5.0/5.8???
i disagree wholeheartedly.
stock for stock, a 351 makes alot more torque than a 302 all day.
of course, it won't realize the full potential of 351 cubic inches, which might be your point, but to say that it won't be any better than a 302 with the same parts is simply incorrect.
