351W and 351W HO

I have a 1984 351W. The air cleaner is labled 5.8L HO. What is the difference between the 351W and 351W HO? Why is the air cleaner labled 5.8L and not 351?

HO had a 4brrl carb on it. the reason for 5.8 also would be the 351m was still alive in that year.

OK great. Since mine has the 4bbl then I guess the label is correct.

Thanks.
