Question L31 vortec crate engine in '72 c20?

What are the things I need to know about putting a L31 vortec crate engine in a '72 c20? Trying to keep it as simple as possible.

I am aware that it requires a different intake, distributor, and needs an electric fuel pump. I am thinking Edelbrock Performer Vortec intake and 1406 Performer 600cfm carb. Will this Summit HEI distributor work, or does it need a special gear? What is the best choice for an electric fuel pump?

Is there anything else that needs to be different for that engine? Will all the brackets and other accessories from my original 350 bolt right on - A/C, power steering, alternator, water pump? Would these Summit headers work with the Vortec heads?

Thanks for any help!
