351-352

This is question from my brother. He's an aspiring FTE fan. "Can I pull a 352 out and put in a 351 without changing the bellhousing? I have a t-18 tranny in there."

No, sorry. The 352 is an FE-series engine, same bell as the 360/390/428. The 351, well there were 3 kinds of 351: 351M, 351W, and 351C. The 351M uses the same bell bolt pattern as the 400/429/460. The 351W uses same as the Windsor engines: 300-6/289/302, and I think the 351C uses the Windsor bell pattern too, but not sure. I don't know why Ford decided that every engine family should have a different bellhousing bolt pattern, it sure is a P.I.T.A. .

Okay, so he'll have to find a 351M bellhousing and change the engine stands in the truck. Yup, PITA. Thanks.

Probably be easier and cheaper to find a 390 or 428 and just bolt it up.
