questions about my new motor

[t-roymoose]

Well the search is finally over. I found a 7.3 motor for $300. It is out of an 88' f-250. I have a 93 f-350. I have the serpintene belt on my old one. Will all my old stuff bolt right up to my new motor? Also what other stuff is different an can I change it to be more like the old 93' one that I had?

all the external bolt-ons will transfer over.

Yes.. Its as simple as bolting it on. You will need a pulley installer - remover tool if any of the ps pumps are shot or the vacuum pump is too hard to reach the 3 bolts under the pulley. Otherwise it bolts directly to the heads on each side. Just three bolts per mount.

Should I use rubber gaskets or the form a gasket?

Gaskets on what??? I don't know of any needed gaskets on the Vbelt to serpentine belt changeover...

X2, although if your putting on a used motor, for the money and trouble it might be worth your time to throw a new water pump on it before you install it. You can use the blue form a gasket for that.
