    You dont have to swap a reluctor wheel as long as you have a matching computer. You dont need to change the motor mounts just get motor mount adapter plates. And depending on which trans you plan to use you might need to change flexplates. Also depending on which trans you use you might not need to have a different driveshaft. Youll need gauge sending unit adapters to make your gauges work.
