conversion kit

Does anyone make a conversion kit to put a 390 into a 62 F100?

I'm putting a 390 in a 62 F250 sometime this year. My dad had a rebuilt 352 installed after he used the 292 engine in a forward gear to stop him from rolling down a mountain backwards... one of those life or death with no brakes kinda things. I know the bell housing is different and the frame side of the motor mounts was a custom job. Radiator looks stock though. Wiring shouldn't be too hard to figure out either. Hope you find a kit or some more info though.

What transmission do you plan to use ? My 64 had been converted and all that is required is a timing cover for a larger truck. Bolts right up. Was already done when i got it, factory swap. Check ebay/CL/parts yards etc.
