A stock 77 351w was a dog as 351s go. Low compression and severely retarded cam timing, not to mention the first year of the 'one size fits all'...
I disagree. There is no 'limit' on stock heads. Yes, they are weak, but you can't say they are only good for 'x' amount of power no matter what...
Yes... but if you do more checking, they never used the large tank with a valance. That makes a big difference. The large tank cars had more room...
I am going with a Stang tank soley for the exhaust situation and centering of the weight on my 75. I want to go with off the shelf exhaust, placed...

Stock tank location sux really bad. I have seen folks bend over backwards and cobble together a pipe to squeeze by the tank, and it ain't pretty....
