351W in a 1999&up??
 
Okay someone told me that you can put a 351 in a 99 and up mustang! Is that true and what kind of moding would you have to do???? Would have to do some cutting for this engine??? Just curious!!!

Thanks,
Karen:cool:

why would you want to put a 351 in your car?? You can do sooo much with that 4.6.

Shelby428cj 09-11-2002 01:30 PM

After seeing a 350 put in a mazda miata I believe any thing can be done. Yes you can if you REALLY want to.

The K-members are interchangeable on all the cars '79-present, so you can put any motor that you could put in a Fox in a newer Stang too. The 4.6 is a huge engine, so the SN95s have more room than a Fox in the engine compartment anyway.

Anyone remember the 1999 Saleen S351??? :D

Shelby428cj 09-11-2002 05:58 PM

The 4.6L is the widest of all the ford mustang engines. It is 4 inches wider than the 460 cid according to MM&FF.

Shelby428cj 09-11-2002 11:41 PM

Wow really I didnt know that I figured the 4.6L to be much bigger!! Thanks for all the help guys!!

See Ya,
Karen

Maybe not, but you could :) I believe that the 99 S351 was the only year the new platform had a windsor powered engine.

Heehee Cam that would be cool wouldnt it !!!! If anyone knows anything about Saleens I have another quick question. Why is the S281E (My dream Car) Is faster than the S351??? Is it because the Screw type supercharger that makes all the difference???

Thanks,
Karen:D

The S351 produced 495 HP while the S281E @ 425 HP

Why would the S281E be faster? Maybe suspension set up? Weight?

Shelby428cj 09-12-2002 11:20 AM

I read in a mag. that the 1/4 mile was faster!! Hmmm but I didnt know the specs for the 351 it has a lot more HP!!! Well thanks.

Tsk, Tsk, Tsk Karen, don't believe everything you read in a magazine ;) :)

When cars have that much horsepower the 1/4 mile is all in the launch. Depending on the driver you could see as much as a second or two difference with the same car. With equal traction the S351 should win a drag rage - the centrifugal blower makes more top end (although the twin screw charger on the S281E is very impressive).

S-281E S-351
12.83/108.13 12.623/119.54
12.78/109.4 (26x9 M/T Slicks) 11.504/122.58 (26x10 M/T Slicks)


Numbers by December 1999 MM&FF (S-351) and January 2002 MM&FF (S-281E). The S-351 is almost a second faster. Just felt like adding my 2 cents. Have a good day.

GodStang 09-12-2002 09:27 PM

That did not come out right. Let me try it again.

S-281E
12.83/108.13
12.78/109.4 (26x9 M/T Slicks)

S-351
12.623/119.54
11.504/122.58 (26x10 M/T Slicks)

Numbers by December 1999 MM&FF (S-351) and January 2002 MM&FF (S-281E). The S-351 is more than a second faster in the 1/4 mile. Just felt like adding my 2 cents. Have a good day.
