Re: 1969 Ford Cleveland heads
Ever see the Australian 351C 2 barrel high compression heads? Ford North America was asleep at the wheel back then. I'd like to see a 351W run in Stock with that little tiny carb on it.

Re: 1969 Ford Cleveland heads
With the appropriate HP factoring, an engine with a little carb can be a contender.

Re: 1969 Ford Cleveland heads
What about a 69-70 Shelby GT350? They have a good aluminum intake but i'm not sure what carb.
I'll bet with the right amount of money it can be a Holley 850. |

Re: 1969 Ford Cleveland heads
Tom,
Please define "the right amount" part. Many of us are on tight budgets but if we combine our allowances... |
