300 I6 to 351W Swap

I have an 83 F100 w/ 300 I6 and SROD trans, I was wondering if anyone has pulled off the 300 I6 to 351W swap before, and and tricks or tips that they can lend, I know it can be done

I pretty much know what I need to go along with it

Thanks Tom

hmmm, ok, thanks, I know that I need a throttle cable out of the 351w truck, radiator, engine mounts, frame stands, since I have the mechanical linkage for the clutch, I'll need the bracket that mounts on to the eng/bellhousing, flywheel, engine w/ all accessories, (alt, p/s, fuel pump, ect....) air cleaner
