1997 Ford conversion questions.

I know very little about fords... A friend of mine has a 1997 ford F-250 4x4. its an extended cab 8ft bed with a 5 speed manual and a 351 gasser. Can he use the ford trans? how about flywheel, clutch, and driveshafts. I heard somewhere that the ford trans will bolt up but i am not sure. he would be using one of my 1992 6bt motors. Thanks

The other thing to worry about is the twin traction beam...
