No 351 Cleveland in '78
1974 was last year of production for the Cleveland engines.
A Close Relative Based on the Cleveland was the 351M,,aka "351 Modified".
The term Modified meaning VARIATION.
The 400M and the 351engime are "same",,,like siblings.
the 351C and 351M /400M are more like Cousins
"Public Opinion" was Extremely Low on 351M/400M at their introduction,,and most of their life.
Theye were sorta of a Disappointment Performamnce -wise compared to actual 351C's
In all truth & reality,,,the Ford MODIFIEDS are excellent engines for their intended applications.
Millions have more than proven themselves over gazillions of miles.
Value??
The Clevelands are TREASURES,,Classics,Collectors Items.
And priced accordingly
The Modifieds,,,,are sorta "dime a dozen".
Very high production numbers,,and in production till recent history.
There's an abundance of them,,,and a low demand.
The typical.average 351-M can be found for little as $250~300,,
a documentable Low Mileage one Might get $500~700.
Inordinately Low Priced engines in used market.
They go for less $$$ than the cost of basic parts to rebuild one.
Crazy,,and a shame,,,but there's just sooo many out there filling a slow/low demand
Hope that helps,,,and Good Luck !

Ford didn't put the cleveland in a truck , and there was no cleveland in 78. You probably have a 400M . They are good truck motors , but not much on hot rodding.
If its running , has good compression and doesnt smoke , $400 is a reasonable price . If it uses oil , smokes , or knocks you will be doing good to get $100.
I have a 1978 Ford F150 that is a "Ranger XLT" W/ 400M - 4V

The 351 Cleveland block is the basis for big block Fords. It is a popular engine for hot rodders. The price you can get for it depends on the market where you are selling it, and the overall general condition of the engine. Just do some homework on e-bay and on the phone to see what a good selling price would be.
Here is an example:

Yes Ford did make an F-150 Ranger in the seventies, I had a couple. If it is a true Cleveland motor and runs well, doesn't smoke, tick, rattle then advertise it for $550 obo

Ford did not manufacture the Ranger in 1978.
