a 302, 5.0 engine harness, computer, hopefully the 302 already has all the intake fuel inj brackets alt p.s and various other parts on it already. Mounts, if keeping the trans then a 302 bell housing to adapt. Theres alot of internet articles on the swap. Just did mine this past winter. wasnt bad.

buy a new car with a v8 already in it. not worth the time or hassle unless the car has extreme sentimental value. trust me
