Looking for some advice, can a 351 Windsor manifold work on a 302, does it require adapter plates?
Thanks,

Joules,
Adapter plates are required when using a 302 intake on a 351W. The deck height on a 302 is 8.2", and a 351W is 9.5". As the block goes up, the heads go up and out.

Also if you use the 351W heads on a 302 the bolt holes are bigger and require the use of washers, thats the older versions. Not sure about the newer engines.

351W on 302? Not if it's a single piece intake. 302 is 8.2" deck and 351w is 9.5" deck which will be much wider so there would be a huge port and bolt hole mis-match.
If by chance you meant using 302 intake on 351w, yes with adapters....but why would you want to do so?
