Motor swap question

My '75 F250 is in need of a motor rebuild or swap and I've come across a '68 Ford half ton with a recently rebuilt 360. Will the '68 360 swap in alright for my '75 360? In the little bit that I've had to examine the '68, I've noticed a difference in the engine mounts and power steering pump. The '68 also has an automatic tranny, versus my manual. Thanks for any help you guys can offer!

360 and 390 block is the same. Bolt the 75 mounts to the 360 and you are good to go. If you have clearance issues with the p.s. pump just swap it to. Remove the automatic tranny and get a pilot bushing and bolt your flywheel on and you are good to go there also. next is your exhaust manifolds, if they are different bolt up the 75 ones and you are good to go.

Good luck

Sounds pretty straight-forward. As far as the power steering pump, the '68 has a hydraulic "box" for the p.s. and the '75 uses the hydraulic ram - are the pumps themselves any different?
