Not Ranked
Also, because the 351W uses the same heads as a 289/302, the "Cobra-Powered by Ford" valve covers are used in a lot of Cobras.
I had a '65 mustang coupe with a '73 351 Cleveland with '70 4V heads; previous owner had chopped out the inner shock towers at the A-arms, so I had a frame shop realign the A-arms, then reweld the shock towers to clear the 351C. Spark plug changes took about an hour, mainly by using the "Braille" method. Car ran well: 14.60 @ 97 MPH with a 3.00 open rear end, spinning thru most of first gear. Not blindingly fast, but could beat ALL the stock 5.0 Mustangs and Camaros up until about 1989.
