im after any bracket you may have, prefer to keep A/C functional but not the biggest concern. everything else is a must. ideally i would like to drop my new engine in and have everything SOMEWHAT line up. like PS, A/C (if possible), anything you got or info you possess, im game to listen. thanks everyone!

the only brackets that are different on a 351 are the AC and maybe the alternator bracket. Everything else is a direct swap from a 302.

AC bracket is 351w only.....alt bracket depends on whicj alt you plan on using (65/70 amp or 100 amp), I think everything else is the same, as far as panther brackets go....now what came on a 351w in 1971...who knows, I would compare what you have on the 351 to whats in your present car....Comment

the timing cover bolt holes are in the same basic places for the water pump and damn near everything hangs off those bolts. The block and head mounting holes might be different, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're the same. I'd give it a shot and just see if the stuff will fit. Ford pretty much didn't change much, if anything, in regards to mounting points on the 302/351 windsor engines.

The p/s and alt bracket swaps over, that's what the other set of unused holes in it are for. Only difference is the metal top piece depending on if you have large case or small case, 3g's come in both flavors so it doesn't matter.Originally posted by marquis_82_withneons View Post
