You'll need to either make, modify or buy swap parts. Mounts, oil pan, oil filter relo, headers, etc. Using a full size t-case may cause clearance issues to the frame and fuel tank. The larger engine (front-to-rear) and increased cooling requirements may force a radiator change.

Here are some resources for 97-back V8 swaps:
