Engine Swap Questions

Iv got a 95 F150 with a 5.0/302 that dropped a valve and tore up a cylinder, I found a 95 5.8/351 that I want to put in it. Iv heard I need to use the 5.8 Y-pipe portion of the exhaust and the flex plate, aswell as the 5.8 computer, but iv heard mixed opinions about the Wiring Harness and I'm unsure about any other issues that I may not be aware of, Is there anyone that has any info about this swap and any problems I may be overlooking ??? Thanks for any & all input & info.
