New rebuilt 460 trade for new 390?

I have a 78 lincoln 460 I was going to put into my 68 F100 sitting in a 78 250 frame and running gear. It has a 351m and a 4 speed tranny an d was thinking I really liked those 390s back in the day and it would kinda' be original to the 68 part of my truck so if anyone has one they wont to trade lemme' know.
P.S I'd just have to change the bell housing the motor mounts should fit, right?

Yeah, I've been reading some 390 swap threads and... it looks pretty tough. Talking about having to change the perches and all I dunno... Might be cheaper and easier just to put the 460 in. I was just getting a little down about finding parts for the 460. I still need a flywheel and motor mounts and a carburator
