Rebuilt engine for 89

I am going to get a bronco, but it needs a new engine. It currently has 302 in it, but I was wondering if I could fit this 351 in it:

In addition to this, would I need to buy any more things for it took hook up and how much would it cost me to pay someone to change these out?

Look For A Truck In The Wrecking Yard And Compare Differences And Get Parts.
I Think The Computer Is Different, Firing Order, And Engine Block Deck Height Is Taller On 351. Exhaust Might Not Work Heads Are Going To Be Higher Up In Engine Compartment.
I Don't Think It Is A Hard Swap But Their Are A Lot Of Little Differences.
Good Luck
