I do agree that a person can get a lot more out of a 351W with different heads, cam, etc. but that all costs money and maybe the whole intent here was to use what was at hand and keep the costs down. If that is the case then suggestions on how to tune the current combo would make more sense. Stuff like cam timing, jetting the carb, etc.
