Engine Swap Confusion

I own an 86 F150 and i have over 350,000 miles on her and i have a 4 inch Super Lift on it and i want more power so i was woundering if it was posible to swap the 302 with a 351. i know it will require some mod's but i was just wondering if i could with relitive ease.

Try the 302-351W engine forum or your specific model truck forum for information. Use the search function there. This is the performance engine building forum.

Engine Swap Confusion

yes you can swap over with little mods. you will need a 351 intake, oilpan, new balancer and flex plate 28oz . a distributor from a 351 and accessory brackets for the 351. other than that its a strait forward swap. im doing this to my bronco but ive got efi so that just adds to the list of parts needed but no biggie. its all worth it
