351C Expert?
I have my 351C-2V (casting D2AE-CA, 1H12) finally in my 74 F100, problem is I have no pulleys or brackets. Does anyone know some part numbers? I've been in circles! I need Crank/water pump/pow steer/alt/a-c pulleys and p/s,alt, and a/c brackets. The engine was out of a 1971 Montego (not positive), been trying mustang sites, cougar sites, no luck! As soon as I think I got a part number, a prefix changes! I can't afford those darn March set-ups, I want the original gear. I am back home at FTE hoping my buds can step in before I pull all my hair out. Thanks!

I'd look for a 1970/73 Mustang or Cougar with 351C 2V and get all the parts from that. This way, everything will match.
As big a PITA as it is looking up all these parts for me, for you...trying to find all of them from dozens of cars, and comparing engineering numbers, will be a royal PITA.
Here's an example of the lookin' up process:
D0OZ-3A733-B .. P/S Pulley ~ MARKED: D0OR-3D673-B / 6 1/4" 0/D / 7/16" sheeve (Belt Groove).
Fits: 1970/71 Torino/Montego 302/351 & 1970 & 1972 Torino/Montego 429 with A/C / 1971 Maverick/Comet 302 / 1970 Mustang 302 (except Boss) / 1970 Cougar 302 / 1974/76 Torino/Montego/Cougar 460 w/ A/C / 1979/80 Granada/Monarch 302 with a Ford (not Saginaw) P/S pump.
It took 20 minutes to look up just this one part, then look in two car parts catalogs comparing applications.

factory part numbers from, but like Numberdummy said, you probably won't get any of these from a dealer. Salvage yard or ebay maybe.
If you want me to do some looking off the car, lemme know. I might have some time this coming weekend.

I appreciate it!! I am going to keep searching the salvage yards, but everything down here is mostly foreign and new (south florida). I will see what I cab stir up. I know the ford part number game is practically impossible. Thanks again!

I went through the same ordeal with my '78 F-150/351C install. It was a PITA, and next time I get a donor motor, I'm grabbing all the brackets it with it!
Be careful as some M brackets look similar, but won't work...those part #'s could help you match with stuff in E-bay if anyone can track them down for you. I don't know how many of my brackets have the #'s visible, but I can look this weekend and tell you what I can make out.

I appreciate the help guys. I went the route of trying the part number game and found someone parting out a 72 cougar with a 351C. I blew most of my budget, but I got him to agree to sell me the entire front of the engine. Brackets, pulleys, alternator, p/s unit, even all the bolts....I guess I will see if this actually goes through. $250 is expensive, but it is cheaper than me losing my mind and suffering through this anymore. If it doesn't work out, watch the classifieds for a 74 f100 with a nice 351c. I will keep you updated fellas, thanks for all the help!
