302-351W Swap
I currently own 2 79 Tbirds with 302's and FMX trans. I am considering swapping at least one to a 351W or stroked version up to 396. It would seem pretty straight up considering how closely related the 302 and 351W are. They share the same 28oz. balance so bolt up to the existing tranny should be no problem. Intake manifold and front engine accessory brackets must be changed. Is there a difference in the exhaust manifolds between the 302 and 351W? What else am I missing or overlooking? Thanks...JW
