I would like to convert my 6.9 diesel to gas. I have found a rebuilt 1983 390cu in and would like to know:
1. Will the bell housing from the diesel bolt up and match to the 390
2. Will I need to buy a conversion kit for motor mounts
3. What other conversion issues should I consider before purchasing the 390
