Which Rostra unit do.you suggest? Do I need to.get one that is specific to the year/model truck the engine came from?

How much is the unit from Motech? Just trying to see what my options are.

As for the Dirty Dingo motor mounts they will work and I will probably go with their accessories brackets when said and done. I just need to figure out if there are any shorty headers that will work in my 74' using their motor mounts. Since there is not a lot of information out there I am not sure what if anything is available to work with them.

Vanatta20 another question for you as well since you seem to know your stuff. I bought the Walbro 255 fuel pump. That should be plenty big enough pump shouldn't it for the fuel system? Still trying to find more info on what exactly needs to be done there since we don't have the FCM. Do you basically set it up similar to the LS system and use the Vette system with it? Any advice would be appreciated.
