We are rebuiling our 351 Cleveland it's a 1973 motor. It's an original 2bbl carb setup and I would like to go with the 4 bbl carb. I was told the ports on the heads are different from the 2 to the 4. Would I have to change the heads then, or is there a 4v intake made to fit the 2v heads? Also do I need to change the cam?
Thanks,

Use Edelbrock #2750 Performer 351-2V. It's a 4-bbl manifold designed to match the 2V heads. Will not accept Motorcraft carb.
The 351C 4V heads are considered junk by most street engine builders because of the overly large runners and doglegs. You can't get any low-rpm torque out of them.

whats the difference in the ford motors? 351W and 351C?
Whole different family of motors. Do a google search.
The main difference between the W and C motor is the heads.
Thanks for the info. I appreciate it!
