I don't remember an HO Fuel Injected 351, unless you want to count the 95 Cobra R's as being HO's and not Cobras ... the only other "high performance" 351 really was the Lightning ... at least that I remember right now, there may've been a PI version in the Crown Vic's, but that was likely a very short lived motor ... > WAIT, i just though of something didn't the injected 351Ws not come out till later?? Define injected ... the throttle body injection system wasn't on the 351 that I've ever seen, but multi port came with all the others in 87 as far as I know ... > i know the 302 were in 84 i think but when were the windsors Uhm, the 302 is a Windsor and it didn't get multi-port until 86 in the Mustang's, maybe 85 in the trucks ... > and would a 87 be an HO becuase this motor will fly it had No, like I said before HO's were 302's, they had a different intake manifold and cam, you can identify them quickly by the firing order, if you put the wrong order on there it won't run quite right ... >84 351W 2V that was good but nothing like this motor. The 4V modification alone is probably making it run harder, if you changed the cam, there's your answer entirely ... also what shape is the new motor in compared with the older one, the compression ratio's might've even gone up a bit because of the addition of fuel injection ... all kinds of variables in here, and since you've added stuff you've really mixed the thing up ...
