ledofthezep Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 (edited) You may check out http://www.ford-trucks.com for info, or post on their forum. Only ford motor I've had experience with is in my 66 Bronco(1st yr)...170 inline 6'r w/3spd on the column. It's 90% original, I have all the stock parts including suspension, except the original seats & one hubcap. Original engine & drive train. Think that steering pump is hard to come by....try finding a manual steering box for that Bronco that's in good condition & not valued next to gold.

jinx44 Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Yeah, externally the 351M and 400 are the same. They are both based on the 351C (cleveland) engine. Many people call the 400 a big block, but I don't. The main reason I don't think it is is that the C and M heads will fit on a windsor block since they all used the same bore spacing. You have to tap and plug a couple water jackets, and use custom intakes (or a BOSS 302 intake). The valve train will have to be for a C or M. The reason a lot of people confuse them with BB's is they use the canted (angled) valves like the 370/429/460. The modifieds quit production in 80, the clevelands stopped in '73 I believe. I have a problem with absorbing all information that I think is interesting. I don't remember a damn thing in school, but I can tell you a lot specs and facts about engines, heads, blocks, ATV's, motorcycles, and lots of other unimportant information. I'll try to send you a picture of the '68 F-100 that I built. It was powered by a stock bottom end '68 429 (orginal pistons even) with a set of C8 heads that I ported, old school Offy intake, headers, full MSD igntion, C&S 800 Aersol carb, and a comp 294S solid cam. 3,200 stall, spool, and 4.11 gears made it fun to drive. It was a torque monster. I estimated around 500HP on pump gas. Led, I love those broncos. They bring hella prices and I can't afford one. I have too many other toys.
