[DeTomaso] Aluminum Cleveland Block

[LS]

Thanks for clarifying, I've always heard the 221-260-298-351w engines referred to as "Windsor"...I guess as a convenient term.

Aren't all 221-260-289-302-351 considered Windsor variants?

>>>Sort of, but not really.  The 221-260-289-302 all share the same block.  The 351W uses a totally different block and is what is normally referred to as a "Windsor" (although the previous generation motor was also cast at Windsor, Ontario I believe).  


 
If not, is this a new designation that has been changed recently?

>>>Nope.  BTW the only reason the 351W is referred to as such, is because it was produced at the same time as the totally different 351C.
