No it will not.
FE series engines are unique in design.

The 400 is a "small" block to use cheby terms also. Some parts interchange or can be used on the 302/351W/351C/351M and even the 429/460 (distributor) but nothing works with the FE/FT engines.

no the 351 mod is not a big block and neither is the 400. The FE is its own famlily of motors and nothing interchanges with other motors. And to lighten that intake buy one from edelbrock will save you close to 50 lbs.
