I doubt the ac will fit with a 351?

I say this because while you can get by with no ac in florida you might as well already be in hell

I put a 351 into my 93 Ranger because I had a complete engine, I rebuilt it, converted it to Carb and Duraspark and it works fine. My truck was a former drag truck and had no heater box so I installed a Vintage Air street rod kit. It works fine except on cool rainy days because it has no outside air intake and the windshield is hard to keep clear.

I've read that the rod angle in a 347 is enough to cause piston scuff and shorten engine life, I'd build a 331(.030" overbore, 3.25" stroke) unless the budget allowed for a Ford Performance block that could handle a bigger bore.

I thought about it, but the coffee isn’t doing enough to help matters today
