Ok you ford guys, why would I want to put a 351 Cleveland back in my Pantera, instead of using a much better engine, the 351 Windsor??
I have used and raced Chevrolets all my life until I purchased my 73L. It of course came with a 351 Cleveland with the big ported heads (which are useless on the street). I had a custom built 351 Cleveland with Aluminum Heads and complete roller motor built, and It is ready to go into the car now. I happened to be at a Barnes & Noble and purchased a book on Windsor engines, it seems to me that would have been a better way to go. Any input would be greatly appreciated as I know nothing about ford engines.
I hope I didn't open a can of worms, but I think we could all benefit from this discussion. Thanks.
