Some say the 5.0 or 5.8 but I have seen some that just say powered by ford . Easiest way to tell the difference between a 302 and a 351W is to measure across the intake . ( top front of the intake from side to side . Its wider than a 302 . ) Without going out to the garage at the moment I loked on the net for measurements and found a site that claims the deck width which I assume is right at the block between the heads lowest point on a 351W is 9 inches and a 302 is 7 inches so you see there is a very noticable difference . If anyone would like Ill break out the tape measure and actually measure a 351W intake and a 302 intake so we know for sure .
