taking out my 13b this weekend! hopefully

ok guys and gals i am going to take my 13b motor out this weekend! i wanted to know what do i need to make sure that i don't break, lose or take off for my lt1 swap. i know the motor and trans are coming out, do i need to keep the secondary cylinder for the tranny? i have a new one that i never got the chance to install with a ss line so can i use that? now i see and hear that people are moving there fuel filter does that mean i need to get more fuel line or redo the line from the back of the car to the engine bay? and are there any other pointers i need to be aware of? thanks all!

good luck dude!
are you putting a new fuel pump in too? you may want to rewire it so its direct to the battery and use the stock wire to just turn on the relay (which then turns on the pump).
how much did you fint an LT1 and t56 for?

didn't get the lt1/t56 yet i am taking the motor out to sell it so i can get more cash in hand! i was going to go this weekend to get an lt1 motor for 400 bucks complete with wiring harness just no tranny and it is an auto ecu so i would have to send it out and stuff but i would rather just get the whole thing in one shot! i have a walbro 255 that i was going to throw in but how should i do the fuel pump? and what do i need to save from my 13b? i was thinking about the oil pressure sending unit and the coolant sensor what do you think? and is there something else i am going to need?
