Dropping a 302 in the 98 V6

My brother is getting ready to buy a 1970 Mustang Convertable with a 302 in it. he has a 351 that he is planning on putting in it, and said that he might give me the 302 out of it when he does the swap. What mods would I need to do in order to put this in a pretty much stock 98 V6?

Best advice, don't do it. It wouldn't be smog legal unless you spend a fortune adding EEC-V, etc. You can almost certainly trade the V-6 in on a GT for less money. But hey, take the 302 anyway, you never know when a cheap early Fairlane, Falcon or Maverick in need of a new engine may come along.
