Question Frame Question

I have been offered a Bronco that was restored five years ago. With the new restoration they put a 351 Cleveland engine. Orginally the Bronco had a 6-cyclinder engine in it. My question is other then the modifications that they made, could this more powerful engine do anything to the frame????? Anything I should watch out for with this modification?

Thanks for the help!

Shouldn't hurt the frame as long as the conversion was done cleanly and properly. Bronco frames are pretty strong and I've seen just about every engine imaginable from 429/460s, high horse stroker Windsor, to 4 cyl Cummins and Case diesels.
