302 to 351w swap

I currently have a 1982 f150 with a 302 back by a c6 and im going to look at a 351 in a few days. The 351 is in running condition and will bolt right on to the tranny BUT am i gonna need a new flywheel motor mounts? I also wanna put more pep in its step and put a new crank and mild cam in her, any suggestions? If ya'll know of any down falls please let me know so i can prepare

With the plethora of performance parts available for the 302, have you considered just building the current engine? Or bolting up a replacement built 302?

If your gonna replace the crank why not go ahead and stroke it? A 408 would make it move nicely
