Carmax, You are correct, best bet would be to go yarding and get a pair from there. The 351M used the same perch 77-79. It does not matter 100, 250, auto or st dr. 302 68-79. I call them swept back easy to recognise.

I am not in that business, but would guess $25.00 or less. Have you contacted Tom at Flashbacks?
