Planning my engine swap

I have a 84 GSL with a 4-port SP 13B and RB Holley with full RB exhaust. I'm going to swap all the drivetrain into my GSL with SE suspension and nice body. Other than the fuel pump in the 13B car and the engine and tranny, what kinds of considerations should I make? I'm leaving power steering in the 84 but taking everything else. It doesn't have hot start, cold start, washer reservoir or a working cruise vacuum diaphragm, but I imagine everything will swap easily. I figure I'll drop the driveshaft, support the engine, drop the tranny mount and unbold the engine mount, pull off sensors and oil cooler fittings, remove ignition, and it should come out as a unit. Any advice?
