Default 351w heads ... any benefit?
Will 351w heads help 302 motors? What is different and what to do to use them?

same heads. Most came on trucks/vans so smaller ports.

No real difference unless you get older ones form like 69 or 70 IIRC. Even then, it's not worth the heartach of the hunt. Better to mod your 302 heads or buy aftermarket.

I wouldnt say 351 heads are worthless, but to see much gaines it would have to be 69-70 4 BBL heads. Before the 5.0 frenzy, that was the alternative to more power
