Hey Just getting startedwith a 79 4x4 and keep getting asked if its a 351 "m" or windsor. I know it is a 335 series motor cause it has the vertical fuel pump bolts. It is a stock truck with a 2 v carb. Can someone solve this for me. Sieff

Hi Sieff and welcome to FTE! I think you answered your own question, it’s a “M”.

Enjoy the site!
