I don't know where they measured to get the "Classic Ford V8" numbers.

For comparison, these are the width dimensions listed in the Ford Racing Performance Parts catalog:

Pushrod:

302: 18 3/4"
351W: 21"
460: 26"

OHC:

4.6L SOHC: 25 5/8"
4.6L DOHC: 30"
5.0L Coyote: 28"

I measured my Explorer 302 and it is just under 19" across the valve covers. Based on that, I'd place more trust in the Ford Racing numbers.
