Got a 88 coupe all stock except for the MSD stuff. What all is needed to swap in a stock 351w? It's speed density now was going to do Mass air conversion before the swap, so will all my top end stuff be able to swap over. I'm taking injecters, fuel rails, after market intake, throttle body, etc. I know headers, oil pan, bell housing and cross member probably has to be switched out also

You will need distributor, oil pan, headers, 351 intake, heads with 1/2 head bolt holes, it will use the same bellhousing and crossmember.

add a correct 28 balance balancer, but your fox pulley back spacing. And a 28 balance flywheel that is made for the fox clutch set up. and the heads 1/2 head bolt can be drilled relatively easy or cheap. and with out careful motor mount, rack an pinon to oil pan spacing, u will need a cowl hood of sorts. a stock hood will work but but those things will have to be adjusted.
