So I picked up a complete 351C today. 2V heads and no miles. It is an original ford crate motor that was used at my local high school for auto class. Came on a run stand with radiator and all gauges hooked up. Been sitting for quite a few years, but inside. Oil has never been changed and it still clean as a whistle. I pulled one of the valve covers and the oil is spotless laying on top of the heads. I'm pretty sure the motor has never been apart but not positive. Came with a complete new gasket set and valley pan. My plan is to put new bearings on the bottom end and run it. I've read a few of the posts here and was just looking for a little feedback. A buddy has a cleveland in his bronco locally, so at least I can follow his trial and error path. The bronco is going to be used for street and sand, no crawling. What do you think?
