That lists some stuff for the swap, including mounts and headers. The mounts will fit either the 302 or 351, the headers I believe will, but I'm not 100% positive.
Either way, forget A/C, and if you remove the heater that would be a great benefit to space. The engine will just barely fit in with the heater in place, though you'll need to heavily notch the box. In addition, the steering will have to be redone under most conditions, and the oil filter moved.
