Swapping a V-8 345 for the SD33 in a 72 Scout

[gesbaby2005]

Hi all,

Simple question: What is entailed with putting an SD33 in my 72 Scout that came with the 345 V8?

I think the engine mounts are the same, but the transmission crossmember has to move. Does this mean I have to move my clutch linkage mount?

Are there any other weird changes I have to make?

Is there a thread where somebody has done this?

Thanks!

Dave Nuenke did this swap, and I think there are some threads on binderplanet that describe what various folks have done.
