Default ENGINE REPLACEMENT

I HAVE A 69 FORD MUSTANG WITH A 200 STRAIGHT 6 AND IM GOING TO GET A 302 WITH A AUTOMATIC TRANMISSION. IS THERE ANY OTHER THINGS I HAVE TO REPLACE WHEN I TAKE OUT OLD MOTOR AND BEFORE I INSTALL NEW MOTOR.

Check the FAQ up top. Everything you'll ever need to know about 6 to 8 conversions is in there.

check the FAQs, but a gist of it is, new engine, tranny, rearend, whole drivetrain basically. new suspension all around, engine mounts for new engine, thats the gist
