Updating Door Hardware

I've got an 84 FB that is wired for power windows and doors, but the doors on the car are manual crank/lock.

The car came with door panel covers for power window/doors, and power window motors.

Assuming the motors check out, can the existing manual crank window slides be removed and replaced with the power window tracks?

Are the mount holes in the door and on the tracks the same?

I took an electric motor door and installed a crack with no fabrication.

I am all for helping you but you have ignored my direction to stop making tech threads in the builds section. I'm closing this thread.
