You will need a 351, engine mounts, the intake, upper and lower, wiring harness, computer for the 351. I guess depending on where you get the engine, if you go the auto recycling way, try to get everthing if they pull the engine. Like all the sensors, wiring, and intake and dist. Some around me do it that way. Try to get a 351 from ur year truck.

Motor mounts are the same between the 351W,C, and 302.

Wiring harness should be same. The 351w won't use a knock sensor though. You may need to lengthen, or unwrap the fuel inj. harness as the 351w intake is wider.
Y-pipe is different.
Flywheels are different.
Try to get a 94+ roller motor, if you can.
