I used the perches from POL ( Performance on Line), if I were to do it again, probably would use the ECE mount, just because of better Exhaust clearance. The trans mount you can get just about anywhere, the simpler the better on trans mount.

The fuel pump I got from Turn Key, they had the pre and post filter, pump, oil change tattle tale sensor and the oil pressure adapter, they are not cheap and when I do another, I will go elsewhere just cuz of the high cost and less than stellar service.

I wish I had a camera to take pictures. If you are doing this on a 63-65 chevy truck, you will need to redo your emergency brake lines. I am doing this now so inspection can be done, I went with the 66-72 cable design.

I also went with Sanderson shortie headers, CSLS1 model, ceramic coated and all, I like them.

I would be happy to tell you anything I have learned, Thealien has a very nice write up here ( see above response), just about any question a guy could think of is answered in there.

Oh by the way, I used Wait4Me performance for the PCM and harness rework. Make sure you tell them what you need, If you do away with anything like AC, oil change tattle tale sensor, anything like that. They were the cheapest and it worked, you might choose otherwise.
