Having to rush out the door right now so I can't offer a detailed answer. Check www.bowtieoverdrives.com for lots of great info.

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......

. these are thing's you will have to do at least i did..
