Ford 302 & 351 SVO Cylinder Block Rear View Diagram - Bellhousing Dimensions

Cylinder block rear-view schematic annotated by hand with numbered bolt locations one through four.

AI caption · Photo 59 of 70

This document is a dimensioned engineering-style line drawing showing the rear view of a Ford small-block cylinder block, captioned "CYLINDER BLOCK – REAR VIEW (COMBINED 302 & 351 SVO)." The drawing overlays/combines the 302 and 351 SVO block configurations, with the left bank labeled as typical of the 351 SVO and a corresponding right bank label (partially cut off). Numerous dimensional callouts locate features on the rear face of the block, including values such as 9.77, 7.220, 4.67, 5.53, 14.960, 14.10, 15.47, 2.900, 5.25, and .56, measured from horizontal and vertical datum lines. The scan has been annotated by hand: four bolt-hole or mounting locations around the bellhousing face are highlighted in pink and numbered 1 through 4 with a marker, and two additional side locations are highlighted in blue, presumably to identify specific fastener positions of interest (likely bellhousing or engine-mount bolt holes). A reader can use this drawing to identify the rear-face bolt pattern and dimensional layout differences/commonalities between the 302 and 351 SVO cylinder blocks, and to see which specific holes the uploader flagged.
