i did a the swap a few month's back in my blazer, i had to slide the transmission cross member back a few inch's i found a shroter drive line so i did not have to cut mine, but i beleave it was 2 inche's or so., aftermarket, t.v cable correcter bracket for the carb, aftermarket, t.v cable unless your stock one's long enough

. and the lock up for the converter, you would want that hook up aswell so you get the full fuction's and opperation of the transmission......
