Any recommendations for a good 351C rebuild kit. Basic kit with bearings, seals, gaskets for 351C-2V.

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.

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.

FM = Federal Mogul and kits are also sold under the Sealed Power brand name.

Great! Thanks for your advice, Alex. I appreciate it. By the way, do you run any Div. 1 tracks during the season? Like the whatever they call it Natl's(Formerly MOPAR Spring Nat'ls) Here at Englishtown?

Wow. What's the cubic inch difference? It doesn't hardly seem fair.
