You basically need everything mechanical between the front bolster and the bell housing.

Working from memory:
The flywheel is different.
The clutch is different.
The pressure plate is different.
The front engine mounting is different.
The rear engine mounting plate is different (thicker as you've already discovered).
The frame rails are different (shorter to account for the thicker rear mounting plate) while keeping the tractor the same length.
The radiator bottom outlet is on the opposite side.
The fuel system requires a return line to the top of the tank, which the gas tank doesn't have.

Some of these issues can be addressed with clever fabrication.

Your best bet is to find a 706 or 756 with a D310 and a bad rear end, and use the parts.
