I have a 78 F-100 4x4 with a 300i engine.I also have a 67 ford stationwagon with a 390 that has been setting for 29 years.I spent an hour on the 390 and got it running.I plan to rebuild it soon and was wondering what all i have to change to put it in my 78 F-100 4x4? I know i have to change the bellhousing b/c i have a 4-speed.I dont know about the motor mounts that come off of the frame,not the part that goes onto the motor.If i have to change these mounts which ones will work?And i also wasnt sure if i would have to change the oil pan?Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks!

those engines came stock in the older 73 up fords so getting a motor mount won't be hard just buy one for a 75 with a 390.same with the oil pan and pick up.
