In Need of A 351W
I've got a 85 f-150 with a rod knocking. Looking at options. Either swap in another 351, or Rebuild the one I have. Have never Rebuilt one before, but people say it isn't too hard. Also, what's the difference in 351w. Something bout H.O. They only come certain years or what. Would a 351w out of an older car be the same? Thanks for answering my NewBee Questions

Welcome aboard!
351s are pretty common, you can get engine specific information here:

I did a quick search on craigslist, seems to be more of the 335 family motors:

Good luck, Mike

Sorry for dropping in I saw this title on the display to the chapters.
The HO basically came with a 4 barrell carb. and also used some parts differently then a normal 351. For example rocker arms valves etc. Stuff that was better suited to handle a 4 barrell Holley. I run a 351 HO in my 85 4by4. It is a good motor that can handle any hill or mudpatch. I only get stuck at gas stations.
