No, the 351m has a big block bolt pattern, and the 351w has a small block pattern, this caused some what of a problem for me seeing as I had 5 spd tranny off a 351w that I wanted to put on my 351m.

No not if you plan on using the same bell housing.

351 big block taking out. replacing with 351 small block. will the transmission line up?

There is no such thing as a "351 big block". ALL Ford 351's are considered small blocks, tho the wacked terminology of "351 big block" is mistakenly and continually repeated by the un-knowing and by many who should know better. Ford Motor Company considers ALL 351's small blocks; 351W, 351C, and 351M. Ford made a 352 big block (FE block like 360, 390, 406, 427, & 428). If that is what you meant, no the transmission bolt patterns are not the same. The 351W and 351C both have the same trans bolt pattern but the 351M has a bolt pattern like the 429 and 460.


Is the Ford V8 351 a small block or big block?

It depends. There is a 351 Windsor, a small block, a 351 Cleveland, a small block, and a 351 Modified, which is a strange mix of big and small block features. These are referred to as 351W, 351C, and 351M, respectively. The 351W looks just like a 302, only it's a couple inches wider. The 351C has a smaller block than a 351W, but much wider cylinder heads than the 351W. The 351C was offered in both 2 barrel and 4 barrel versions. The 2 b heads had ports a bit bigger than the 302/351W, but the 4b heads had HUGE ports. The Cleveland, although it's quite wide, is still very much a small block. (the block isn't much bigger than a 302's block) And then the 351M.. I refer to these as 351"Mutant", even though the M really means "Modified". This strange 351 has a hellhousing pattern and engine mounts that are interchangeable with 429/460 big blocks, but heads very similar to 351C 2barrel. The block itself is roughly the same dimensions as a 351W. It's more small block than big block, but a lot of guys refer to it as a medium block. Whatever. I just call them Mutants. And there you have it. A real quick way to check is to look at the number of bolts holding down the valve cover. Eight indicates 351C or 351M, Six indicates 351W. Also, 351W valve covers are flat and have a rectangular profile, while 351C and 351M usually have a trapezoidal profile. They never offered the 351C in a truck in the US, only the 351M/(and 400 - a stroked version of the 351M)


Is the bell housing the same on a Ford 460 and a Ford 351?

the bell housing bolt pattern is the same but the flywheel on 460 is thicker and makes they pressure plate hit bellhousing from 351m/400 there for it will not work you have to have a bellhousing from a 429 or 460


Which is a better motor a 351m or a 351c or 351w?

They are all good engines but the m is not a powerful engine. The 351c code R is considered by most to be the most powerful but there were low power models built which was Code H. The 351W is an entirely different engine than the 351C even though they are the same size.
