You didn't say what engine is in there now, 302 yes, I6 using 302 perches yes, FE 360 no, not without 302 bell. The engine itself will fit, mating is the concern.

240

The 240 is a ok. motor..If you not going to hotrod around the 240s a pretty good old motor..I put lots of miles on those old things..They were pretty good on gas If you want to go to the 302 your going to need the bell housing and flywheel moter mounts maybe to clutch too..But theres a lot 302 stuff around..easy to find..bill

The 302 uses different engine perches from the 240. The tranny bell is the same, you will need correct flywheel & clutch for the year correct 302.

Shouldn't be a major deal to make the swap.
