Welcome to FTE and the 67-72 Forum John.
As our moderator "John" would or will say the Nations Old Ford Truck Stop. . . .

So what 351 have you got a 351W a 351 Cleveland or the 351M-400 ?

As far as helping you, look in classifieds or include your location. People living 100s of miles away won't reply because of the cost of frieght & shipping and handling. It will only be local folks who will respond. Most of us got no clue where the area code 417 might be, doncha see? . . . .

Hi John, Hard to Top Pete's Welcome, to the #1 Tech support Ford truck stop.

Try this
351C = small block bell housing bolt pattern, and thermostat housing mounts in the engine block (produced 1970 - 1974)

351M = big block bell housing bolt pattern, and thermostat housing mounts in the engine block (produced 1975 to 1982)

351W = small block bell housing bolt pattern, and thermostat housing mounts in the intake manifold, and 16 intake bolts (produced 1969 to 1996)
