Default 1983 FLHT shovelhead

Does anyone have any idea whether an EVO motor will fit in my 83 FLHT rubber mounted frame without many mods?. I currently have a shovelhead motor in it that has believe it or not 139,341 miles on it without ever being into the bottom end of it and only valve work to the top end. Has been a great motor but it is really tired now and am thinking of putting in a HD EVO crate motor
