When I talked about the 351w, I had said research it, not.build it. I haven't looked to see if anyone has had success with it. There are multiple options
Research it, gotcha. To me at first glance it seems horrendous for hp potential, then looking on line to see examples of people making power with stock heads on a 351? Nobody does that, which again further convinced me it is not a good combo.

This was Richard Holdener on youtube making a base run on sbf's, same heads and cam pretty much and both made same power just at a lower rpm for the 351;
