No 351W's in Pre-1981 F-Series trucks
ONLY E-series vans in the 70's got 351 Windsors.
Please post all the casting numbers form the heads/block/ intake and I'll tell you exactly what you have and what it was probably in before your truck

Is the distrributor at an angle or vertical? Mopar used orange and blue, if the distributor is at an angle,you could be sporting a rare Chrysler inbreed machine.
