need some help....engine parts

OK here is the deal. I been doing a lot of research for my project and so far this site has had the most amount of GOOD info about rotaries. I currently have a '69 VW Beetle that I will be dropping a 13b in that I got today. This engine is naked. Basically shortblock. It is off an '86 fuel injected that had 70k miles on it. Compression is good and the owner of the block (15 year rotary veteran) says the engine ran strong when in the car, smoked a little on start-up but ran well.

Being that this is going into a classic or antique car emissions are not an issue. I need a parts list of the top end from intake manifold to wiring harness to injectors to basically everything I need to run this engine without emissions controls.

I read all the threads on guys doing carb conversions on 13b engines and the cost factor seems to be more considerable than salvaging stock parts.

Keep in mind high HP IS NOT my main concern right now. Considering I'm dropping in a 135-140hp engine in a car that weighs 1600lbs fully loaded the power I want will be there.

Any help you rotary gurus can give or links you have would be appreciated.
