HP makes a SOILD motor mount that works for this swap. It will drop the block 3/4 of an inch lower. I bought mine from Holcomb Motorsports, about $50. However... if you use the Moroso pan, you will have to shim the engine back up to clear the K-member. If you use solid engine mounts remember to use a solid trans mount.

Other than exhaust length differences, a 302 to 351 ENGINE swap is bolt-in with no cutting or adapaters required. Correct headers are a help. Mine from a 302 were "made to fit" with a hammer and are not easy on the eyes.

Any accessories, drives, cables, wires, and such on the top may have to be reconfigured.
