Is it possible to transplant a 351 Cleveland into a EA Falcon, or would a 302 Windsor be the better choice.

Don't quote me, but I'm relatively sure that I've heard people claiming that the 351C is too wide & the heads foul the strut-towers.
Note that while I'm only about 75% on the truth of this, I'm hoping that if I'm wrong then the speaking of bullshit will draw "those in the know" out of the woodwork.I am relatively sure that I've read something about it in the past though, and that a 351W is an easier proposition (they sold EFI 351W's in F-series trucks for a while, didn't they?).
Mr Mango & Mr Pear are my heroes!!

If were a girl I'd have a Toyota Starlet GT Turbo
the 302w would be the easiest as you cold use a crossmember and other parts from the EB.
street machine did a few stories on this exact swap about 2 years ago.
