302 to 351 in a '31 Model A
A few years ago, I swapped a 351W into a '72 Ford Bronco, to replace the stock 302. Everything fit fine lower down, and the only problem was with the drivers side valve cover. As has been said, the engine is higher and wider. The back corner of the valve cover hit the firewall, and I had to make a pocket for it. No big difficulty, it only took a few minutes.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
