Default 351M???

Hey Guys,

A few months ago I put out some local feelers for some running or rebuildable Ford engines. I've had a few FE's, a 351W, a 460, and now, a "351M" given to me.

Up until yesterday, I have only a vague recollection of seeing that designation anywhere. The guy who gave it to me told me that it's basically a Cleveland, but with larger main bearings and a S/B bellhousing pattern. It is supposedly designed as a low-range torque engine that won't see too many revs.

Does anyone out here know if that's the real skinny on this? If that IS what I have, would it have regular "Cleveland" heads?

Perhaps my queston is premature without casting #'s, but I'm just looking for a quick confirmation regarding my newest freebie.

Thanks, Tom
