That depends on which 351 you have. The Windsor is a classic small block, like a 302. The Michigan series engines use the 385 series bell housing.
 
74 Harley clarified what I forgot. If your 351 is a Windsor then an AOD will match. I had a 78 Bird with a 400 that had the FMX trans behind it and I guess that was a rare combo, a 335 series engine with the small belhousing bolt pattern.. Man I wished I still had that bird...'
Take care
