A complete 351 probably weighs in the neighborhood of 550 lbs. - and there's not good way to grab it. Not to mention if you don't anchor it securely, it could do tremendous damage to the inside of the car and to the driver/passenger if it got loose back there or you were involved in an accident.
Get a hoist, get a truck, get some tie down straps. Do it right.
