I want to stroke it or do something to make it more powerfull. I don't know what I should do or how much anything will cost.

Coast mustangs in so cal sells some 351c stuff, like a 377 stroker, and i think a 393 stroker. What are you plannin on using it for?? Ive got a set of 351c 4v heads for sale, would work good if youre going to do a stroker, or a really hot 351.

Its for a 70 Mustang. Its an everyday driver but I allready have a set of rebuilt 2 barrel heads for it

The 2V heads are better than the 4V heads anyway!!

For the average 351, yeah the 2v heads are ok. But, if you really want to get some power out of it, 4v heads a bad azz. I think a set of mild 2v heads only flowed like 200'ish cfm, where as my 4v's flowed 276... big difference... all depends on how much power you want.

Just be sure to budget everything out before you start on a 351C project. It is a LOT more expensive than your standard Windsor build. When all was said and done, I probably spent about $7000+ on my 351C rebuild (all new parts). If I could do it over again, I would have gone the Windsor route, probably would have been a few thousand cheaper. And there are a lot more parts out there specific to the type of performance you may want.

But, with my 4V heads, that thing just pulls and pulls to over 7000rpm. Just wish I had the valvetrain to back it up.

Oh, and contact companies that specialize in Panteras. They know a lot about getting good street performance out of the 351C and anything exotic you wish to do
