Default Re: 351W vs 351C

I have to agree with 'Vert, The clev has some performance "pros", most about the heads, the cons outweigh the benefits of going with a windsor though. With the W, you get the cubes without the added weight, and you have a huge aftermarket to work from, and you have the added bonus of being able to convince the "less than knowlegable" that your running a "stock 302".
I think overall the parts selecton and weight savings makes the W a better choice, given the amout of interest, parts and tech out to make it helluafast.
If the car was originally a W , I would call that an added bonus that you didnt have to swap anything, and if you use the original engine, the numbers will match
just my .02
