you will have to change the flywheel and install a distrubutor from a hei system and wire it to ignition voltage. the starter will also be different. other than that it is pretty much straight forward. i have actually done this and these are the only differences. you can run the fuel pump off the engine and leave the electric pump in the tank but disconnect the electrical plug or cut the gray wire at the sending unit.

I am actualy doing a swap from a v6 to a carberated v8... you said that I can use the stock tank and just disconect the wires to the pump in the tank??? does this mean that the fuel will just pass through the old pump without it pumping fuel? Thanks for the input...
