25 year old engine numbers are pointless regarding displacememnt. Drop the sump and have a look youirself,that way there can be no guessing.

Or remove a spark plug and check your stroke.

Check the casting number on the block, i think its on the drivers side on an upside down pad you can only see from under the car or with a mirror. If your sure it's only a 2V a 351C will probably have number like DOAZ-D.

As stated above the best way to tell is remove engine sump and turn your crank over till you see 302 or 351, I have seen engines that claim to be a 351 & there were 302 crank and rods sitting in it!

Snappa's way is easiest 3.00" for a 302 or 3.5" for a 351. Easily distinguishable with a piece of wire down a spark plug hole.

AL4KTG 52870K is from an August 1977 F100 4 wheel drive. AT that time, you could only get a 5.8 Litre Cleveland engine. Therefore, it should be a 351, but you have to check at any rate. Snappa's way is the easiest
