The 4.3L has the same bolt pattern on the front and black as a 1-piece RMS 350. so you would need the accessories and a transmission that will fit to a 350.
motor mounts. These mount to the same place as your 2.8L

What you want to do with the fuel injection is up to you

use a syclone/typhoon intake, that's what I would use. I don't know how well the 200-4r will hold up. you can probably get a 700 out of a salvage yard for 200. That's not saying that the 700 will hold too much either

ive actuly heard of the 200 holding up better but i also have a couple 700s to blow up to, eventualy i want to do a t56 and a gear vendors gear splitter. any idea where i can get a a manifold from a typhoon or cyclone?
