Engine Identification, 351 or 360?
Hi Ford Fans,
What is the easiest way to identify a 351 engine, or a 360 engine. I recently bought a 78 F150 4WD and was told it had a 351 engine, but it sure looks like the 360 in my 76 F150.
Thanks,
SeaDooPhil

To tell the 360 look at the valve cover where it bolts to the head, the valve cover will bolt to the ead and to the intake manafold. The 351, if its a 351m it will have 8 valve cover bolts per side. Most likely since its a 78 you say it should be the 351m since the 360 was not produced after 76.
