The engine, gearbox, and transfer case will fit straight in and cause no problems, you will need the turbo front exhaust pipe. The unit will fit onto your original mounting points and original radiator, but if it is an intercooled engine, the intercooler will need installing in front of the radiator.
The front prop will fit ok, but the rear may possinly need lengthening if excess suspension travel is used.
This is a straightforward conversion, and all parts are available.
