Any recommendations for a good 351C rebuild kit. Basic kit with bearings, seals, gaskets for 351C-2V. ------------------ My interests? Finishing first w/o breaking out

Any takers on this post? Should I just go with like a PAW engine rebuild kit, Summit or Jeg's? Although I'm torn about Jeg's and Summit since Jeg went with Mopar and I had to replace all the casters on my Summit supplied engine hoist, lol. If anyone has recommendations I appreciate it as I haven't bought an engine kit for a Ford motor. Could be a mail order or local vendor(local to the NY/Philly tristate area. Thanks.------------------ My interests? Finishing first w/o breaking out [This message has been edited by tininjun68 (edited 01-04-2005).]

You can get a very good FM engine kit locally in your area. Try your favorite machine shop. Price is very economical and parts are generally better quality than PAW.------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,& '04 First SS/MA in the TENS!
