the 351 is a longer stoke than the 302 so it won't fit inbetween the suspension towers. i know this as i was trying the same thing in my '92 EB falcon, so it would fit if it were a Windsor

The stroke has nothing to do with whether an engine will fit or not. Deck height and Head design does however. E-series up Falcons do in fact have the widest clearance between the shock towers than any Falcon before. 289/302's have an 8.2" deck height 302/351C's have a 9.2" deck height 351W's have a 9.5" deck height 351M/400C's have a 10.2" deck height 429/460's have a 10.3" deck height 429/460's are commonly fitted to earlier falcons(with narrower tower spacing) and will therefore also fit E-series Falcons. BTW I have worked on two such 351W EB Falcons...they fit just fine. Pete. |

doesnt matter if you drop a clevo in or a winsor engine the 1st thing you have to do for it is change the k frame over as its stronger than a 6 so just get a fairmont 8 k frame.There is a el up from me with a 351 clevo in it an its all passed its stuff easy as long as its a optional 6 an 8 model car, lm throwing my clevo into my EL straight gas setup an everything, as long as your headers are adapted to fit radiator exhaust k fram shocks an other stuff are done above board an properly cops cant touch the car at all

I did an article on another site about a 351W into an E-series because no-one seemed to care on this site whether i did it or not. It's taken 7 years for anyone to be interested.
If you did a cleveland legally you'd have to get an ADR emissions test done most likely but, personally, i just do it and not tell anyone. Just write 5.0L on it and do it. Is your NF a V8 already? |

Do you any pics of the XR7 cougar, absolutely love 'em. |

2nd page of my Gallery has some pics of my Cougar.
It would easier to do a cleveland in a V8 model because it would just bolt up. You could even use the V8 4 spd auto. You'd just need a 28oz 11" flexplate. |
