I am planning to do this swap soon too. I was also planning to move the engine forward instead of the transfer case back. Let me know how it goes for you.

What needs to be done when the engine is moved forward? Here is what I came up with:
shorten radiator hoses
lengthen throttle rod (if its a cable may not have to do anything there)
add to the exhaust

what else???
