what parts to get?

Maybe start by offering your location. There may be someone near by that would offer a hand in person.

The cam swap is much easier for someone inexperienced. The LS engines are probably the easiest cam in block, cam swap engines there are.

Rear axle works requires a lot of knowledge and special tools....even if the tools are home made (GREG).

Quality homebuilt tools is what it's all about. Do it on the cheap.
