First of all have you measured the size of the 351. They are alot bigger than a 302. I putr a 390 in a yota and it took a hammer to make it fit.

I would go with the driverside drop and find a set of ford d60's.I dont know what size tires or axles you have now but with the 351 you will need some good axles to take the power.
