IIRC, Haynes manuals often showed the 351M/400 using the same torque specs as the windsor blocks.

The classic truck link in the post has the specs listed in it for you.
I dont think it was the 302 as I recall something was different but not sure what. Though the 351W did have alot/if not all of the similar torque specs

Hydraulic lifters do not require the gapping of the mechanical lifters, i.e. valve lash. So you torque the rockers to spec, unless you switched to a mechanical lifter cam from the factory standard hydraulic lifter cam...Then you would have to find the old 351C mechanical specs or the specs of the cam.
