ok, so i have been planning on doing a motor swap in the future. I wanted to go with a 351W 408 stroker NA with some nice power for the street.

I now have the opportunity to get a 351C block for FREE. I have no clue what to do. Should i save up money and wait a while for the Windsor or jump on this free Cleveland and build it up?? ahhh the choices

honestly.. free is always nice.. but there is was more parts for a 351w... if your on a tight budget i would say go with the c and just do some little things.. otherwise just wait and build some monsterous 225afred massive cam 408 stroker

Why not just go with a big block @ 545CI? Keep it EFI, and make a DIY turbo kit.


I had planned on just a 302 conversion, then that went to a 427W with a 400 shot, now its gone to a blown BBF. You know you will always want more power, why not just do it once?

Just an FYI this does not fall under this forum. f you read the sticky at the top of the forum it will tell you what engine swaps this is about. clickI will move this after some people have had a chance to read it.
