94 gt 331 351w swap

[phillipstheman1]

my 331 died the other night after a 300 shot any way i have a 351 complete motor out of my brother in laws truck what do i need to make this swap happen i would appreciate the help!... also i have a tfs1 cam i wanna use it but i know this block is not a roller what can i do?

There are several write ups about all the info youll need to perform the swap. A non roller block can be converted to accept a roller cam though Im pretty sure youll need to run a reduced base circle cam. Another option is to use linked roller lifters though theyre expensive. Your accesories will bolt right up. Search Pokageek, he did a 408 swap which is just a stroked 351. Youll find his thread useful as he ran into and solved a lot of little problems that most people dont anticipate when doing a swap like this.

yeah there is lots of write ups but most people its bits and pieces and most are not the 94 95 stangs

 

[phillipstheman1]

to use a hydraulic roller cam in a non-HR block, you need link bar lifters. they cost about $500. using a small base circle cam is not recommended

its an 89 block i just found out... what all do i need for the swap? anyone know where to get some cheap headers?

 

[BlackVert]

dude, you really try searching some more ... this topic has been covered alot

Swapping a 351w into a Fox is virtually the same as doing it in a 94-95 Mustang.

The only things I can think of that may be different...

The sn95 is said to have a little less hood clearance
The sn95 ecu MIGHT have a little more trouble adjusting to the increased displacement than the Fox ecu.


Ford never put a 351w in a Fox, but they did put one in an sn95...

I have info on my site, listed in my sig...

good luck,
jason

300 shot??
im guessing its not on a dart block because u would then keep the block and rebuild...
either ur exaggerating or 2 ur crazy

 

[phillipstheman1]

tell that to the rod that went through the oil pan.. it was the stock block not dart.... either way i dont care i want to go bigger.. my future plans do have 2 turbos and more cubic inches

I didnt, 2 owners before me did. The original owner worked for Roush it was an extra Cobra R drivetrain that was left over, actually there were 5 that did not go into production cars. The car was sold to the a guy who lives down in FL which is who I bought it off from.

 

[ford302redneck]

Yucky. Id love to have the full drivetrain.
