Problems....
It will not bolt right in, different bolt patterns, different engine families.
You can drop it off in front of my garage door, I'll take it off of your hands. Just let me know when you are coming by and I'll move my truck and unload it for you.

In the still cool hours of the night,
you can hear chevys rusting away.

[font color=red size=3]The FE engine family (360, 390, 410, 428) use their own bell housing pattern, they will NOT interchange with any other engine family. The 351M/400 DOES have the same bell housing pattern as the 429/460.
So the only way to get the 390 into your Bronco is to change the tranny along with the mounts, brackets, ect. The 429/460 would be easier because you could use the current tranny, but the mounts, brackets, ect would have to be changed too.;-)

We see your question posed here often, and it was, "Will it bolt right in?" So either we were sturring up hate and discontent, or giving you a quick answer to your question. :-)

I dont think you can remove the bellhousing with out cutting it off, and thats just kind of pointless and expensive. John
