Ford Fairlane Ford Fairlane was produced from 1955 through 1969. The original body design was the full sized Ford body which started out as a family vehicle and slowly evolved into many different available models and body styles. The exterior paint and trim options, seemed endless with elaborate cloth woven seat covers and a rainbow of paint combinations.

Did you modify the shock towers to make room for the 351?

You might try Crites, they seem to take care of all you might need for those cars

Good advice on Crites for that kind of a mod. I was told it looks like the 351 w would fit but it's just a hair too wide. The 351 deck is taller which pushes the heads out and they interfere with the shock towers.
