The '70-'71 is supposed to be the highest HP 351W

The blocks are pretty much all the same except for when they went to the roller lifters which was in '93 if i remember correctly. You can get conversion kits for the non-roller blocks if you want to use roller lifters. What changed was the height of the lifter bore. I think the aftermarket lifters a shorter to stay in the short bores of non-roller blocks. OEM roller lifters are longer that flat tappet lifters requiring taller lifter bores.
