i have all the parts for a 5.0 converstion. 93 lx convertible which we're going to put a 5.0 from a 92 into it, computer that matches my auto trans, mass air harness from a 92 and an 87 gt as a donor car for rear end and suspension etc. My buddy wanted to know where to start off on the converstion since we're both doing the 5.0 swap for the first time and if their were any books or guides online were can look at to keep us on track and make sure everthing goes in place. any advice would help

the easiest way would be to put both cars next to each other and swap everything over as it sits in the donor car. do yoursef a favor and as you pull one thing swap it immediately over to the recipient car. that way you dont forget/misplace any parts and its fresh in your mind how it came off the old car.
