Just off the top of my head, I'd say Engine, Trans, Wiereing harness and computer. Other guys on here can list other things your gonna need.

Ohh Yea I forgot about that. You May want to look at picking up a doner car, Get a running 87-88 TC mabey, that way you'll have everything you need, engine, tank, rear end, trans...all the little nuts and bolts ect...
