76 f150 Engine Swap

Chance to buy a 91 or 92 long bed's 300 I-6 EFI motor and transmission going into a 76 longbed(pictured). Is this swap possible. What is the skinny on the fuel system design that i could be short of, most accesories are attached to the engine.

does your truck have an engine or not? I thought that you said you were looking for an engine for your truck......maybe I'm wrong

I have a large V8 and I want a 300, only asking $200 said he took it out of a wreck and use plans died. I was hoping to use just some stock mounts. VIN check post previously annotated that several engines were stock being the 300 as one.

Decided to leave the present motor in place and just refurb everything. I was thinking that all would remain same mount wise. Since all gas vacum and electric lines are there, though some cut on electric, less is involved. Also sine it does have edelbrock valve covers maybe there is something under it all to use on the rebuild. Thanks for the support and hope to get some help latter.
