not worth the effort but yes they will bolt up but they have 1/2 in bolt holes so you would haft to use a washer.

Most 351W heads with the exception of 69-70 heads have the exact same valve sizes, runner sizes and chamber sizes as 302 heads. Bolting 351W heads on your 302 will gain you nothing and you will need head bolt reducer bushings.
