is your 65 ffpo (what is a ffpo? - I'm assuming wdx-wm300 type) a 251 truck? if so it is a bolt in affair. if it is a 230 equipped truck, it can be done by either extending the front motor mount 'tab's' backward to use the frame holes or drilling new frame holes. after that, you'd have to noodle out the radiator - difft routing and then you'd be good on the front end. your current tranny and bellhousing will mate up. if you have an early truck, you might take the time to install a later syncro 420 and then its a new center tranny hump and right side floorboard. guys here can point out what i missed.
