Early 90s F150 engine into 83 TBird

If you've been following the saga of my car then you know I'm planning to swap in a used engine for a while so I can rebuild the original at my leisure. 90 and up F150s are fairly plentiful at PicknPull and they're supposed to have good heads so I like them for a 302 swap. I'm just wondering now about some of the details. I know I'll have to swap on my current carb and manifold in place of the F150s fuel injection system. Is there anything else I should be considering like will it still have a mechanical fuel pump? Things of that nature. From what I know the F150 302 will bolt in place of my original just fine but it's the secondary systems that have me wondering.
