picture and info needed on engine towers

I'm putting a EFI 5.8 in my 78 F250 4x4, it had a 400 in it originally, does anyone know if the 400's towers will work?
And if anyone has a picture or can get one of the mounts I need I would be very thankful.

Thanks guys!

You'll probably need to fab your own towers because Ford never put a 302/351w in a 4wd truck.

I'm pretty sure the 400 towers will work. No idea on what motor mounts you have to use though.

Using the 400 towers the 5.8 will sit one inch to the left, that's just my gestimate measuring the 302 in my 96. I'm sure I can fab a spacer to fix that if need be, thanks for the input.
