    It's "4 MA" for the crankshaft. That just means 351 nodular iron.

     

    Also don't worry about the Edelbrock performer manifold. It's just an alloy version of the standard 4 barrel Ford one. They made them in the States because over there, 2v engines only got 2 barrel manifolds and carbys, and folks liked a little upgrade to take a 4 barrel carby.

     

    Here in Oz, they made the 2v engine with a 4 barrel from 76 onwards. The only thing you need is to get the plenum machined out to get rid of the big taper on the secondary side that acts like a restrictive funnel.

    There would be several manufacturers that each make a few similar spec ones, mine is actually pretty close to what you'd want anyway. It's a Crow 21602. Specs are 208/208 degrees, about 484 lift, 110 lobe separation. Stock valve train is compatible but like I said, valvesprings need uprating. Mine's in a 302 but in a 351 it will have nice midrange punch.

    Other Crow grinds are the 21666 (had that one before, a bit more top end) 21890 (similar but probably a bit choppy on the idle) and the 21686 (ultimate midrange punch with rough idle).

    Lexass power would be nice, but EFI wiring and plumbing is a bit more advanced than this. Also the Clevo lump is already there and running, so it's a case of work with what you got. Just source a 4MA crank, use ACL pistons and put them on the 302 rods. Use a good towing or RV cam, something with low lift and a relatively narrow LSA (lobe separation angle) to bring the midrange on hard without being a screamer. This will allow use of stock valve gear if you go with slightly updated springs. Don't use the stock ones.

    the 351 has heaps more torque low down compared to the 302. even a stock one.
     

    i'd personally look at converting to a 1UZ, if the clevo build is relatively stock the 1UZ goes probably better and won't get hot by comparison when bogging.. they use similar fuel to a clevo when thrashed though(had one in a falcon once, the lexus LS400 is 2 ton and goes ok also)

    I love to put a 1uz in mate but I might be a bit beyond my budget do you think I will hav overheating problems with the 351
