'79 Diesel / Gas Swap?

Can I swap a '79 300 SD power plant into a '79 116 V-8 gasser?
If so how many first born children, bearer's bonds, pacts with current administrations ... are needed?
Vacuum accumulator, not too hard if there is room or it could go in the trunk.
Can I modify the gasser ignition switch to vacuum shut off or go with an aux. shut off?
Is there any difference in the transmission ... shifting, ratios?
Rear end ratio?
Suspension?
Foot feed linkage issues?
Coolant hoses? Radiator plumbing? Trany cooler plumbing?
I assume I would have to swap the fuel tank to gain return line.

What is the value of a good compression 130K miles V-8?

Thanks for the advice.
