Engine swap

Ok so help me out on this. I got a decent looking '87 302-EFI of course. I want to swap with the 360 in the '73 F100 4x4, I've seen things like flywheels for sale at 10" saying they will work for either engine (?) I've got the right mounts now. I'm also going to carb the engine instead of EFI. I nailed down a fuel pump eccentric and I think I've got about everything I need. I'm boring her out .30 over and using roller rockers, got the distributor with the right connector and everything for the 'ol Duraspark-am I going to need a different perch for the NP435? Any idea what other problems I'll run into? I can't wait to get her rollin' again...

On the Roller Rockers , I have always heard if you use roller rockers you need to run a complete package , roller rockers ,roller cam , roller lifters , and hardened pushrods , otherwise just save your money and maybe run something like the Fulcrum kit made by Crane Cams for your rocker arms , fd
