Will a 351 modified fit 1979 f150 truck with cleavland hook to small block transmission?

It is possible to install a 351 modified engine into a 1979 F150 truck. The Cleveland engine and the small-block transmission will both need to be modified to work together.

You will need the following parts:

- A 351 modified engine

- A small-block transmission

- A bell housing adapter plate

- A flywheel

- A starter motor

- A clutch kit

- A driveshaft

The first step is to remove the Cleveland engine from the truck. Next, you will need to modify the bell housing adapter plate to fit the small-block transmission. The flywheel and starter motor will also need to be modified.

Once the engine and transmission are installed, you will need to install the clutch kit and driveshaft. Finally, you will need to modify the exhaust system to fit the new engine.

The overall cost of the swap will depend on the parts that you need and the labor costs involved. If you are not experienced in working on cars, it is recommended that you have a professional mechanic perform the swap.

Once everything is installed, you should have a 351 modified engine that is hooked up to a small-block transmission. This will give your truck more power and torque, making it more fun to drive.
