Engine, tranny, rearend, double hump crossmember, exhaust. I would go with fuel injection.

mechanical ability, and you can't buy that.

not true, a mechanic would take cash to do it for him
i think him and his dad are doing it tho... they'll figure it out

I just went through same thing you are, except my notch is a 1991. I did a full 5.0 conversion including suspension. If you need any help don't hesitate to hit me up on aim or a pm.
