Um...I'm confused...
It should be a direct bolt on swap. I put a 351 based 393 in my truck using all of the 302 accessories. It just needs a longer belt.
Yes, the heads are further apart, but they still bolt in the same places and will fit with a longer 351 belt.
This is on a serpentine system I'm talking about.

i to was able to retain my accesories , at least the ps pump and ac bracket. I installed a 95 5.8 so it used a different Alt/smog setup compared to my 88 302.
clipper, maybe the 351w block you were using was a 70's block or you had a 351m

I too had a belt alignment problem with my 302-351 swap. For some reason the accessories pulleys did not linup with the crank pulley when I mounted all the 302 brackets. I managed to fix the problem by changing the accessory brackets.. there were slight differences in the 2 sets I had. The misalignment was bad enough to destroy a brand new belt in 15 minutes.
