Bud:

I didn't see where anyone answered your question, so here goes a shot at it.
It should be close.

A cursory review of Pantera data produced similar results, no torque
specified.

I did find a reference in a Chilton's manual installing a C6 (aluminum case)
to a Ford block.  It's not specific which block, but the 351C is in the
range covered by the manual.  It specifies 50 Foot Pounds.

I suspect this is "Close enough for Government work"..  Hopefully someone
will have access to some real Ford data and can verify this.

Good luck.
