Have fun with that... You will need the ecm, wiring, (most likely interior and exterior), possibly mounts, upgraded cooling system, transmission, and tons of other things, you make it sound like it will be easy... Not even sure if it has ever been done...

yea ive seen plenty of people to do it on the internet. but was wondering if anyone on here has. but im looking at one now with auto tranny and 87k miles for $3000 which isnt bad at all for everything. (belts, ECM, A/C, Tranny,etc)so i figured i wouldnt have to upgrade much.i know its goin to be a pain. i was goin to get a new rear end too.
