What is needed to make this grill work? Or Can I just bolt it right up? I will NOT get a different hood.
 
Make a trim piece to fill the gap between the hood & grille, or leave the gap there.

I did this with a Plymouth Volare once, I installed an Aspen Grille & bumper on the car, and it left an opening between the center of the grille and hood. Didn't look too bad, so i left it alone.
 
If you don't change the hood to match, it'll look a bit buck toothed in my opinion.
 
Can someone at least tell me if the bolt holes line up with the original 73 duster grill? Or are the mounting locations different??

My mounts look close enough to call it a direct swap but I haven't bolted mine up in the center yet I knew I was gonna be fabbing the center part myself. As far as the grille to fender mounting points they should line up.
