What’s the difference between a 351 and a 302?
This is needed due to the 351 being much wider than the 302. Due to my 302 being from an 87 and my 351 being from a 90’s F150, I had to jimmy up my 302 bracket to work. The reason that I did that is because of my A/C pump. It bolts up completely differently than the bracket with the engine came with (look at pic below).

Can a 302 be attached to A 351W?
The 351 does not seem all that much bigger until you place it in where the 302 sat! To attach the motor to the Trans you need to get the motor completely lined up, up to the point where you can almost bolt it up.

What kind of flexplate do I need for 351W engine?
MAKE SURE TO GET THE RIGHT FLEXPLATE!!! When I did my swap I used a 351 flexplate that was made for the E4OD or the C6, it sticks out too far and it fried my trans when I tried to drive it. A good way to go is to compare the flywheel that came off of the old engine with the new one and make shure that they are the correct tooth, size and depth.
