Default 5.2 to 5.9 swap

Can anyone help me with some info on swaping a 360 into my 98 ram 1500. It has a 318 in it now with a 5 speed manual. I have a 99 2500 with a 360 and auto. will the 360 bolt up to my transmission and mounts? Is there anything I should know before I do this?
I thank u very much for taking the time to read this.

You also need to use the harmonic balancer and the flexplate from the 360.
