Cool, and best of luck. I actually did this swap last summer, and am still on my origional 155,000 mile na transmission. I recomend getting an ebay na cluch kit and sticking with na trans dshaft axles, and rear (if you plan on running 5 psi or so) Mine has taken so much abuse, with no issues so far. This will save you time and money and you can always upgrade in the future. Use the na harness, an if you want my notes i will send them to you. Surprisingly not that bad of a job. Yes we would like to se a budget t2 build.
