If it's not an intercooled engin, the only diffrence to the bits you bolt up to the engin will be the exhust and the air intake. These will be diffrant shapes. Everything else will line up. If it is an intercooled engin (lucky you) then it's just a mater of the exhaust, intake and fitting the intercooler in.
Any veiws expresed in this thread by me are purely from my own experience, and (sometimes) falible memory. Hope my comments help, but please don't take them as gospel.

Agreed, everything bolts straight up. You should even be able to make the air intake fit. Then drive it to an exhaust place to get the exhaust modified. They sound really fantastic with exhaust straight out of the turbo. The turbo whistle is amazing. Makes everyone look for the truck. I did this after I fitted a later TD motor to my 85 F75, which I then added an intercooler to. Easy job.
