you'd need to change the engine mounts to suit the engine unsure what comes in the kit, new crossmember, shorten/lengthen the tailshaft someone may know more

after the kit, you gotta get the tail shaft shortened, good thermo fan(and radiator if yours is semidicked), tranny cooler/lines, While its out, may as well do the water pump/belt/idlers,
high pressure fuel pump/return line, you can use the hard line going too the charcoal can,
auto shifter? the speedo comes in the kit, All adds up, just do it properly an its a good conversion, they hang big skids

no need for a kit. just do it yourself if you are handy and have time. why pay for someone else's smarts when you can use your own? mine cost under a grand including buying the motor and box and doing a disc brake conversion. i did absolutely everything myself from exhaust to working factory style speedo in two weeks despite the fact i am in no way involved in any aspect of the automotive industry professionally of otherwise.
