Switching to 351W

gjb298


spent a year but finally found an engine. the great scramble for parts begins. Looking for a pair of perches for 351W going into an 86 f150 2wd. Probably will need more parts as we go.. but this is today's roadblock. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance

Welcome to the forum!  Glad you joined.  

Where's home?  I ask because we have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and can add you if we have a city/state or zip.

Good luck on the build.  Unfortunately I don't have the perches you need.

I've taken the time to drill out the rivets and remove those SBF perches not once, but twice, thinking that somebody would need them sometime and I ended up throwing them out with scrap about a year later, Ha! That's how it always works.
