302 and 351W parts interchange ??
Looking for a list of what parts (internal & external) that will interchange between a 79 302 truck engine and a 351W.
I have a 79 F100 with a 302 & aluminum heads that is low on power and smoking. Looking to upgrade in torque and horsepower such as a stroker 408 long block.

I'm trying to decide between a stroker 302, 351W, & stroked 351W.
I don't want to spend a ton of money on this project because I'm still throwing a lot at my 78.... it will never end! :-)
It has a C6 now, also thinking about swapping in a AOD or maybe a $Gearvendor OD$.
Need an Overdrive either way.

A 351 gives you the displacement of a 302 stroker without having to buy those parts so it's a no brainer IMO given what a good condition shortblock costs compared to a stroker kit.
An AOD needs upgrades and a shift kit to be reliable behind a 5.8 but it's a good combo that can deliver outstanding highway milage.. I had that combo in my '90 for a while and loved the power and high teens highway milage.

scrap yard jewel
Hi I do not know if fuel economy is a major concern for you.
But if you want pulling power for cheap look at scrap yards and you can have a 460 fuel injected with all the wires, computer and all for very cheap (nobody wants them) people are affraid of big block for their consumption but beware pick a 1993 and up 460s saw an improved cylinder head design that further improved power and economy.
Just drop it in and your done your C6 will fit right on.
Good luck...let me know...but for sure you should at the very least investigate in your surrounding to see how cheap you can get one.
