Rick;

You all are correct of course, the only Cleveland I've ever worked on was a 4 bolt main set-up, and besides Southern Automotive 351"C" is a grand($) lower in price than the "W".

How about engine mounts? Same as a "W" or... I'm getting very interested in a BDR Cobra Replica and I know they have Windsor mounts standard.

Two years ago I built a 351 "W" (Crate) on spec., it had AFR 185cc heads and a Speed Demon 750 and it dyno'ed at 498 BHP which is awsum from a 351 of any ilk. It's still runing strong in a Mustang that is owned and run by a friend. I also know that they are making a very reliable 427 CID from a "W" block too.

Again, thanks all. Jim
