Yes but you will have to transfer over the oilpan and pickup, complete intake system, timing cover and water pump, balancer and distributor, and accessory brackets and accessories from the outgoing truck motor to the new stripped down donor motor.

Ok thanks. I wasn't sure if there were any differences in the valves, springs, etc. And if anyone else didn't know, now they do

HO is just the 351W firing order. I didn't think that all cougars had the HO.
