Shouldn't be any harder than a sbc, just different. If you are lucky the motor mounts and driveline spline will be the same as sbc. Do know the trans will be BOP specific, different than chevy so in the future if you decide to go chevy you will have to change both.

You could also go with an adapter plate for chevy to BOP

I have a 51 303 rocket that I want to use cause its just too cool, but it's going to cost me if I do.
