Either way to get that number at the crank or wheels your going to need to stroke the 351 to something like a 393 or 408. Mine makes 400 at the crank now, to pull 50 more HP at the engine Id have to stroke it as well or raise the compression with different pistons but if your going to do that might as well stroke it while your in there.Lets just say your looking for 450 to the wheels. Just as an idea you would want something such as a 408 stroker, custom grind cam shaft, Trickflow R intake for the 351 or the Victor 5.8 and heads would have to be no less then 205cc either AFR or Trickflow'sI know you bought the car like this so dont take this as ragging on YOU but people think that just b/c a bigger engine is dropped in that it will make more power...well not the case especially when your putting sub par 302 parts on a 351 windsor. Say for example you have two guys that are going to have some go time, one guy is much bigger then the other so you think he would win correct? well if he had a midget strapped to his back choking him out at the same time getting no air flow then he probably could not fight so well huh? Same thing as putting 302 parts on a 351, it cant breath.</blockquote>
