    I think you need to change the engine mounts?

    I'm not sure about fuel pump, as I'm pretty sure that the 304's had a different set up to the six. But I'm not positive.

    you need a k frame i am pritty sure and front breakes rotars are bigger and calipers have fins, unless an executive v8 didnt hvae the bigger brakes, then you wont.
