351 swap

I am swapping a Carbed 1970 351W into a 1990 F-150 that had an EFI I-6 in it. Trans is a 4 speed manual with granny 1st.

Will 302 Accessorie brackets for alt. ps. and ac. work on the 351?

Will the output shaft of my trans(stock 4 speed manual with granny 1st) fit to the 351(came out of an LTD or Torino.. not sure which, but it had an auto trans)?

the tranny will bolt up, but the you will need a new flywheel and clutch assembly.

As for the accessorys, Im unsure.

I did a similar swap - I made the alternator bracket work, and had to modify the power steering pump bracket by cutting it in half and adding about 1" of steel. The windsor is a little wider, and since the power steering pump has a bolt that goes to the head, I cut the bracket, bolted it to the waterpump, then hung the pump from the head, clamped in a piece of steel, tacked it, took it all apart and brought it over to my welding table where I welded it but good!

Those are the only two accessories I run, so am unsure of any other bracketry.
