    it should work. its ment for a reverse rotation water pump. that accessorys on a 351 are usally further away from the water pump so there shouldnt be any clearance issues.

    so if he runs it like a normal v belt then he wont need a reverse waterpump

    would this work

    i went to manual steering to on my 302 //so all i would have to do is buy this setup and the alt watter & crank pullys would line up ??

    I don't know if it would work because of the taller deck height on the 351. The bolt holes might not line up.
