Engine Swap..whats it take?

Have a 1980 hatchback, with a 200 six, want that thing out of there and a 302 (yes it's still a 302 to me I'm old) in it's place. Anybody have any idea what it will take to effect the swap? Parts that is... I have no idea what chassie parts will swap between the two engines, if any. The car currently has a C4 transmission in it. I know some of you guys can help me out. Oh I usually hang around the 05 V6 board, very new to this board...Thanks for any and all help....

Well to start you must change the K member....a 4 cyl and V8 are the same but the inline 6 cyl has a K member all it's own with different mounts.

Aside from that the parts are pretty basic and if you plan to run a carb then that too is a simple setup.
