The EP-302HEA-2 is a complete HEI distributor for the Ford 351 Windsor — one of the most durable and popular Ford V8 engines ever produced, powering Mustangs, Torinos, and F-series trucks from 1969 through the late 1990s. The 351W is a beloved engine in the Ford performance community for its broad power potential and excellent aftermarket support, and HEI ignition conversion has become increasingly popular as a simplification and performance upgrade for these engines.
The 351 Windsor has a longer distributor shaft than the 289/302 small block, requiring a specific distributor designed for the Windsor deck height. The EP-302HEA-2 is dimensioned specifically for the 351W to ensure correct rotor-to-cap terminal geometry and proper drive gear mesh at the camshaft. Installing a 302-dimensioned distributor in a 351W application results in incorrect shaft depth and potential timing instability.
Manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 quality management with dimensional verification for Ford 351W shaft length and drive gear specification.

Key features
351 Windsor specific dimensions
Designed for the longer distributor shaft depth of the Ford 351 Windsor engine. Not interchangeable with the 289/302 unit (EP-302HEA-1) due to different shaft length.
Mustang and F-series coverage
Covers the 351W across the Mustang Mach 1, Boss 351, Torino, and F-series truck applications that used this engine for nearly three decades.
65K coil for Windsor performance
The 351W has excellent performance potential. The 65,000-volt coil supports modified Windsor combinations with larger carburetors and performance camshafts.
Complete HEI conversion assembly
Ships with coil, blue cap, rotor, module, and vacuum advance — everything for a complete 351W HEI conversion.

Application scenarios
Mustang Mach 1 and Boss 351 restoration
Mach 1 and Boss 351 owners converting from points or Duraspark to HEI choose the EP-302HEA-2 for performance reliability in these landmark Mustang models.
F-series 351W truck upgrade
F-150 and F-250 owners with the 351W appreciate the simplified wiring and improved cold-start reliability of the HEI system for year-round truck use.
351W specialist supply
Shops specializing in Ford performance vehicles stock the EP-302HEA-2 as the correct 351W HEI distributor, distinct from the 302 unit.
Installation guide
Same basic procedure as EP-302HEA-1, but designed specifically for the 351 Windsor deck height. Disconnect battery, mark positions, remove old distributor, lower EP-302HEA-2 to the correct depth for the 351W, connect BAT wire and vacuum hose, set timing. Do not substitute this unit for a 289/302 distributor — the shaft lengths differ. Approximately 30-45 minutes.
