Im getting ready to swap out my 258 for a 304 V8.
Few Questions?
Do the motor mounts that attach to the frame need to be changed, I have new rubber mounts for between frame and motor.
Is there any wiring changes?
Is there any advice /ideas any one can give me ?
My Jeep is a 82 CJ7 and the 304 is from a 78 CJ7.

You'll need the motor mounts from the 304, but I believe they bolt right up to the motor mount perches already on your frame.
 
CHECK OUT MY LIFT #2, pics should work now

Good deal !
I see that the fuel line comes up on the opposite side.
Anything else ??
 
If I remember correctly, and I really am trying to remember, you have to get a new throttle cable too, the 258 one is a tad bit short. ????
