351C question please

[fatheroftwo]

found a 74? f250 4wd and the cyl head has a "2" in the corner, I know this signifies 351C 2 bbl heads, but do these heads fit other blocks?

Is this a cleveland for sure?

thank you FoT

the VIN is X265KA------ fordification does not seem to decode this year

The trucks never came with a Cleveland in them.. But the 351m's and 400's did.. And they can use the same cyl heads... But not the same intakes cause the difference in deck height.

The 5 in the VIN# is wrong, it should be a letter

No C block in Trucks in the early 70's.... not under 1977 were the 351M/400 available in Trucks
I suggest it has had a replacement engine if not an FE
The 2 doesn't represent anything for IDENTIFICATION Who told you it did ?

What format are the spark plugs in

this one : / / \ \
\ \ / /

or this way: / / / /
\ \ \ \

How many valve cover bolts ?
Wet or dry Intake

Casting numbers or firing order ?

I did not get that close of a look. It is not FE for sure, i wish it was.

cleveland heads all had a BIG 2 or 4 in the corners near the intake. I'll do some more digging, and get the year and a better look at the VIN, and the engine.

Don't go by that 2

That is your first mistake.
Go by the info I gave you.

I need to get a better look on monday, I'll bet you a dollar they are cleveland heads :>)

I will check the info you gave me for sure though, I can be taught, most days
