yer look id be more than happy to help out guys! maybe even be a good thread to have for good lol if i can remember what i did that is!!
its actually not that difficult to do as a conversion there isnt much u need to do mate!
the basics are F body camaro sump,engine mounts{i used the rubber chassis side of the original ones and made my own up to fit to them very easy job!!!,and wiring harness{i recommend injectedholdens.com} ask for matt hes a top bloke and very good at what he does and is great to deal with!!
and there isnt really much else mate...i had to modify the sump a bit but no major...u can actually get a steel sump from morosso but some dont like to use them as the original sump is apparanlty suppose to be a structural part of the engine but i have got my doubts as i have seen many conversions with the steel sump but each to their own!
umm really there isnt much else to do apart from headers and u can buy them off the shelf,i made all my own manifolds for my set up as i have got a GT42 on mine in my WB ute....
ill see if i can post some pics of what i have done to mine mate !
