Valley pan fitment?

If it does they will not fit as the 4 barrel ports are much larger then the 2 barrel.  I don't remember a separate pan to cover just the valley. I had both a 2 barrel and 4 barrel engines. The actual difference is the heads, as the block is the same either way. Also I know there were 4 bolt mains but I've never seen one. My 351C was 500 Hp. and lived at 8000 rpm, with 2 bolt mains for all 6 years I owned it. After I traded it for a pickup truck. It ended up in a Mercury Marquis, and I lost track of it. But the 2 bolt block is way tougher then it needs to be. Hope it helps

Hi, sorry I've not got back sooner, I've replaced all the front suspension and the steering apart from the box and the control valve I refurbished has a very small leak ( piston was fine, no scores etc) which is very annoying.
I've also put amber / white LED's into the back up lights to get over the " no red flashing lights " on a car here.
The LED bulbs I put in the taillights also look a lot brighter than standard and want to change the interior quarter light bulbs when I can ( they seem to burn the original lenses).
I have to get the toe in and camber set but not many people do American cars here and most of my local ones will " give it a go" which isn't what I want, I've got the toe in to a "driveable setting" so might wait for a mobile specialist who can only get to me early in June.

As you probably know V8's are not common in the UK ( and never have been) so every time I start it up I smile  Wink

Cheers
Jeff
