converting to carbaurator
Have a 302 in my 87 F150 now - Have a 90 something 351 windsor in my garage - Want to convert the 351 to a carbaurated engine -
dont think a 302 maniffold will work on a 351 .Is that correct ? I think I need the dizzy , wiring harness, -
Have any of you done this or is there a link you can direct me to
Thanks Will

You are correct. The 351W deck height is taller than the 302, which makes the distance between the heads is wider.
You are correct
No, keep the harness that is currently in the truck.
There are hundreds of posts on the 302 to 351 on this forum. Do a search and read up on the subject and possible pitfalls.

What he said. A “ ‘90 something” 351 would be fuel injected from a truck so you have all the parts? Why not just swap the 351 for the 302 and be done with it?
