Hi again guys thanks for the help on my last question.

Ok, I'm about to put the heads on my block and I noticed the little dowl alighnment pins are not there after I had the block rebuilt.

My brother-in-law said just go down to a bolt bar and get some.


Does anyone know what size they are for a 351w?

You can probably get them locally from your Ford dealer, if not try a local engine rebuilder. The small blocks ( 221-351W,351C, 351M, 400) all used the same dowels. Don't assemble your engine without them.

Engine Suggestions on an engine rebuild. Stock cam/GT40Ps or aftermarket on both for a fun weekend driver?
