351W dimensions please

A friend of mine has been trying to make the case for using a 351W in my T coupe rather than the usual sbc. Does anyone have the dimensions of the engine ,specifically I am looking for the width between exhaust flanges on the heads . How wide is the engine without exhaust manifolds on?

Is it the same as a 302 ?I think that you it set any way but have a mate that has 302's

The oil pan is deeper than a 302 because the throw of the crank is longer.

The 351 is wider and taller because the deck is a half inch (?) taller.
