as to the 352 v. 351, i have a 65 f250 4x4 with a 352 in it. tell me, who wouldn't want a motor that gets half the gas mileage, weighs a hundred pounds more and has fewer aftermarket parts available(cheap)? i wouldn't trade mine for anything though, except maybe a nice stout 410 or 427 sohc(hehehehe!)

Technically the 351W is 352 cubic inches but Ford wanted to distinguish it from the FE. Then they made 2 more 351's. 351C and 351M. Also techincally the 350 would be a 352 also since it has the same bore and stroke.

Wait!? What?
I don't know diddly doo about blue ovals.. I started in this world breathing bowties... But, this doesn't make much sense...351w is almost the same as a 302 (block size), correct?
351c is ?
351m/400 is a "big block"?
427 is ?
460 is a big block....
FE's are what 352's, 360's, and 390's...?
I'm obviously stumped.....
