If I remember correctly, the C has 2 different motor mount bolt patterns on the block depending on year. One is like a Windsor, the other is not.

? The 351m/400 had a different motor mount bolt pattern than the 351C but all 351C blocks have same pattern..and it's same as 302/351w.

^ What Bill said..

I love the Cleveland engines! I have two Broncos with them and like it had already been said... Coyotes are not for me in a Bronco... I like the Coyote engines, just not in a Bronco... Shoot... I had rather have a Flathead!

My 'Rattler' Bronco has an aluminum heads (AFD's), Sandersons, FITech injection, Canton oil pan...etc, and a toploader 4 speed trans. It's a blast to drive and uses about the same fuel as a 302.. Less if you drive it easy..

I don't have much to add but I will say that the Rattler looks like a pretty Badass Bronco. Very nice job!!!

So whaddya waitin' for? ;D

Wow ! I've always wanted to build a Flathead - but my visions were no where near that amount of cool . I grew up in the 1950's - real young though - I mean real young - LOL . My dad was a Mechanic and him and his buddies were always tweaking on flatheads and swapping junkyard motors and radiators and etc - a love that never goes away - keep up the good work - LOL
