What is needed for a T2 swap to a GXL?

I want to order a JDM 13B T2 and swap it into my GXL. What is needed, or what do I need to look out for? I believe that I will need to switch fuel pumps over to T2 or Aftermarket. It comes w/ a T2 tranny(which I know it will need). I have a T2 rear w/ drive shaft. Is there anything else that I need to know about? Please let me know , as well as if you have done it or repeating what you have heard. Thanks. -Blake

Well your gonna need a wiring harness and a computer as well. Since the motor will be out of the car, your gonna wanna change all your gaskets, and fuel lines. Do all you can maintenance wise while the motor is out of the car. Get a new clutch, pressure plate,and throwout + pilot bearings. Make sure the motor your getting is good through compression test.
