Hey guys, im just curious what parts are interchangeable from the 302 to the 351 block? Will the brackets and everything bolt up? What about the water pump? If you planned on running fuel injection... i guess you would need the Lightning lower.. would u need the upper too? Or would the cobra upper bolt up to it? Thanks guys

Is there any other parts that you would need for the sawp.. like a different timing cover etc?

You need a lower intake, can use your upper. May need a crank pulley spacer. You'll need a 351w swap oil pan. You'll need headers 1 1/2" longer.. May need a cowl hood or drop motor mounts.. You'll need a different distributor.
