They just aren't as common in the mustang community because the 302s come in our cars already.
That's exactly what I was thinking.

Nik, there are tons of people building 351s. They just aren't as common in the mustang community because the 302s come in our cars already. You'll see 'em at the drags, though. I'm not sure if I'd do it with stock parts, too. People used to put forged parts in the 302s before everyone came to the consensus that it was a waste of good parts. The 351 lower ends are actually weaker than the blocks. So, good parts make sense. From a purely economic standpoint, it's probably still best to just run what you buy from the JY, though. The guys running stock stuff aren't afraid to push to the ragged edge, because there's always another one at the nearest salvage. Kinda wish I went that route as I would feel more flexible in my own build. Now, I have to think very carefully and conservatively because I have too much money tied up.

And it's those select few who go outside the box that leave us scratching our heads wondering what just happened as they give a shrinking view of their tail lights.
I'll be sure to take my bbq pit to the track so I can cook all the crow i'll be eating that day.Haha true. There is a fine line though, between the guys who make this look easy, and the guys who hold us up at the track for 30 minutes as the clean up crew vacuums up their engine vomit when they inevitably blow something up with their hack "I built this on a dirt floor" builds.

From what I can tell.....a very, very select few. For the most part, you get what you pay for.And it's those select few who go outside the box that leave us scratching our heads wondering what just happened as they give a shrinking view of their tail lights.
How comes there is always some guy doing it w/ a junk yard combo,..and I blow up the good stuff?
These videos never show/tell us how long you'd run 9.50's on a stock bottom ended, GT 40 headed,...JY 351 W before it puked.
So NIK we gonna see a hair dryer hangin off that 351 of yours?I'm sure a lot of you guys have seen this- it's an OLD website. These guys grenade a few junkyard parts, but for the most part they went really fast with lots of stock 351 stuff.
