you will need. . . hasport motor mounts, b series shift linkage( not to sure about hidro tranny), b series axles and intermediate shaft, b series transmission, and... thats about it.. every thing else is pretty much putting it together.. b series exhaust.. exc. it isnt hard at all.. complete engine of course...

yup.. im not to sure about the radiator hose.. you do have to get the b series top radiator hose cus its at a really sharp bend. ( looks like a question mark). you just need the headers from a b series.. the cat back and all will bolt up like normal. the botton radiator hose worked for mine..
