351W Roller Block ???

Hey does any one know how to distinguish a roller block with out pulling the lower intake? There has to be a casting number to look for i would think?
Thanks!

I believe the roller ready 351s were F4TE castings.

Ditto, the roller block is an F4TE casting, numbers can be seen above the starter while laying under the truck. Or if you don't want to get dirty, pull the drivers side valve cover and pull one pushrod and measure it. The roller 351W pushrods are about 7.5 inches long. The flat tappet rods are a little over 8". The roller blocks were found in all the 94-97 351W trucks.
