Engine perch question.
I have read on here that the perches needed to install a 302 or 351 are different from the 352 perches. Will my 300/6 perches work for the 351? It looks like it would but not sure. Also are the engines offset towards the passenger side with V8s like the I6 is?

i got mine at the local pick-n-pull or $9, out of a 75 f150 with a 302, cleaned em and painted them, bolted them in and got motor mounts from rockauto for a '75 and it dropped right in. my motor is off set to the passenger side a couple of inches, only interference i had was with my my long tube header on the passenger side, one tube came in contact with the inner fender so i relieved it a bit with a piece of wood and a wedge. hope this helps. my truck is also a 66.

Thanks Zombie. Gonna go with long tubes as well. trying to maximize the torque from the 351.
Just spoke to my paint supplier and I am looking at $1500 for materials
to repaint the truck. The patina look is starting to look better by the minute
