63: 6 to v8 swap?

my wifes 63 has a very tired 230? 6 in it, on a quick visual inspection, it looks like the bellhousing has the same shape as a V8..
..so would I be able to use the 6 belhousing,starter,clutch,flywheel?
wiring harness?
It has a dinky little radiator, but my donor has a good v8 one..
the donors, a 64 v8, or a 65- I have 2 different ones, are both equipped with ratty wiring harnesses
niether one has a starter.
and the motor mounts, are they different 6-8?

anything else I should look out for?
