13BT into 1980 SA

Can anyone tell me if there is a list that someone may have made already or maybe someone could give me a list, of all things that I will HAVE to get for my swap. I am going to use a 13BT out of an 86-88 and am using that transmission as well. Also I will be using a megasquirt computer to run this set-up. Any help is apprectiated.

I think a great understanding of the forum search function would help alot.

You'll get this from alot of people but I haven't been here to long yet and this question gets asked...at least 5-6 times a week.

When running a standalone ECU,there is not much factory stuff that you HAVE to get.Itll be a fairly straightforward swap.

Basic longblock with manifolds/turbo.

Trans.......Since you have an SA,modding the TII tranny to move the shifter up 1" is kinda pointless.Just cut/mod the center console for the new shifter position.

GSL-SE oilpan and front cover to mount everything up.

There are several routes to take for delivering high pressure fuel.

All factory wiring for the engine can be removed since youll be running a Megasquirt
