It is fairly easy to do if you have a lift, but it is possible to do on the ground with a jack and jack stands. You will need to be able to unbolt both sides of the mount and support the engine with the jack while you replace the mounts. If you download the autozone app to a smart pone or tablet it will give you a repair estimate calculator,
some of the engine change over problems are tough to have everything the way i do it is write catagorys mounting,electrical,and fuel ect. and it helps to have the doaner car/truck around to get some of the hard to find pieces from or build it from scratch
As far as I know there was only one V6 engine offered on that vehicle in 1983 and that was a 2.8 liter V6. (There were a range of 4 cyl engines offered though).
A decode of the VIN on the vehicle should tell you which engine was fitted in the vehicle when new. (In a vehicle that old the original engine could have been replaced with something different).
I recommened only the factory part for this. You can buy it from most full service part stores and not just the Ford dealer. The part is MOTORCRAFT Part # DY959 [ICM] (Ignition control module) $176.79 You can also mail order it from a site I use called rockauto.com the price given above is from that site.
