351W "Windsor" is based on the small block 302 motor. The 351M is based on
the 400 large block motor. I believe the '89 Bronco had a 351W in it.

Not true, see this info:
http://www.off-road­.com/ford/bigbroncos­/faq.html#1982

Ford used up their remaining stock of 351M engines before switching over to
the 351W in mid-model year 1982. All Ford products, including Bronco,
returned to the use of the Ford "Blue Oval". Letters F-O-R-D were removed
from the hood and the blue oval was placed in the center of the grille and
on the left side of the tailgate.
