V-8 engine swap

Has anyone ever done this before or thought of doing the swap. I got a 1990 bronco truck complete with the motor, trans, transfer case and all. this is the 5.0 EFI. I am mainly concerned about any fabrications that will have to be made for the conversion. Also, I am wondering, the transfer case on the Full size Bronco has the motor assembly for push button 4x4. My bronco II has manual locking hubs. Will this also create a problem. Thanks for all input.

I am in the process of putting in a 302 in my BII. As for running gear, I am getting a T-5 from a mustang and same with bellhousing/oil pan/motor mounts. As for EFI, I wouldnt touch it with a 10ft pole. Plus my 650 double pumper will kick butt on a stock EFI unit any day
