Ford engine numbers for Australia

351 "C" 4V 1970-1973 Cleveland
http://www.carmemories.com/ford-engine-specifications/351-engine-specs/351c.html
would have thought engine capacity would be what they wanted
351 cubic inches which converts to 5.75186 litre capacity
horse power in the link above is 300 BHP (brake horse power)

I have no idea myself but found the car memories web site that states the engine specifications and I hope it is correct and matches your engine ?
most likely it would be rounded up to a 5.8 litre capacity

You mean a Ford 351 Cleveland? ..you need to know the oil capacity??... 5 quarts total.. (includes oil filter change)

You can tell by looks or by the VIN number if the engine is original.
The fifth digit could be H or Q. H is for the Windsor engine and Q is for Cleveland. The Windsor looks like an ordinary 289 or 302 engine, the Cleveland is a big head 400 version. I don't think they used a 4bbl Windsor but they did use a 2bbl Cleveland so that is not a good example.

First of all Ford never made a 302 cleveland, they made 351 cleveland . the metal from the lifter is all thru the engine ? ( bearings, oil pan, etc. )

not on the valve cover???

Everything will need to change eas far as engine, transmission, and most likely rear end.A 302(5.0) swap would make more sense because they came in these cars and there will possible be some factory brackets and other things availiable. When you say 351 i am assuming you mean windser. This engine is in the same family as the 302 but thats about all they share. It has not been in a mustang since 72 or 73 and those were much different cars. If i wanted a 5.0 stang i would just buy me one. this will be a very expensive project and there will be many unforseen problems.

You will need brakets from a F-100/150 73-79 2wd 302 engine then the windsor will bolt up.

I believe only another 460 motor.

Well there is a 302 cleveland, they are mainly an Australian engine. Identifying one is much like telling the difference between a 351 windsor and a 351 cleveland. Based on the fact that it's from Ford's 335 engine family. 8 cap screws to hold on the valve covers, the block is longer do to the timing chain housing being integrated. The fuel pump bolts are mounted vertically, and the exhaust bolt holes are diagonal. Also, a big difference between an american 302 and an aussie 302 cleveland, is the connecting rods for the cleveland are 6.000''. Where the american 302 connecting rod length is 5.090". Also, referring to a 302 as a windsor is incorrect, it's block families name is the 90 degree v8. The only engine in that family that is properly named the windsor, is the 351 windsor. The 90 degree family also includes the 302 boss. The boss has cleveland style heads, and the block has screw in freeze plugs.
