Just like the title says, are there any production cars that came with a 351 or just trucks?

Pretty sure theres a Saleen with a 351 in it! The s351. Obviously the most common in the late model era is the 93 Svt Lightning!

Pretty much every full size car of the mid/late-70's had some version of a 302/351/460W in it.

Was this just a random question, or was there a point behind it?

Me and a buddy are thinking about making my 86 into a dirt track car. In the rules it says it has to be a production motor and you can't use a truck motor, but neither of us could think of a car that came with the 351. A 302 just wouldn't be competitive enough with the chevy 383's and 400's out there.

We are going to be buying an already built race car this week to run next season, but we still want to build a mustang.

A 383 isnt a production chevy motor, and when did a 400 come in any passenger car that chevy made?

The 400ci engine came in quite a few passenger cars back in the late-60's and early-70's. Pontiac Tempest/Lemans, GTO, Beaumont, Chevelle, Cutlass, etc.

Why all the yelling? No need to use exclamation points on all your posts, we still get the picture

???

Who asked to differentiate between Big or Small block? The question was asked when any Chevy passenger car came with a 400?

I'm sorry, I forget that some people get sensitive for when someone use exclamation points.

Not sensitive, just trying to differentiate when you actually have to yell or not

Call me crazy but that's one of my dream cars...an early '90s Interceptor

As for the engines...it's unfortunate that the better blocks are the earlier years, but the later years get roller cams. I've heard some horror stories from guys using Lightning blocks.
