The curent Jegs and Summit catalogues list one or two that may have threaded 
inlet/outlets, but you'll have to call their tech line to verify that its 
really for a Cleveland. The 351-C fuel pump fits no other engine due to the flange 
shape, and that engine was limited production. So shops sell thousands of 
351-W pumps for each Cleveland unit. Some shop counter guys have literally never 
seen a Cleveland engine. The 800- call will save you having to return a wrong 
pump. 
The most desirable pump will also have a screwed-on base, allowing the 
knowlegable owner to replace the rubber diaphragm & check-valves inside with a 
screwdriver. Less desireable are crimped-together pumps (like the OEM) that cannot 
be repaired. Good luck- J Deryke
