well to start out with, you need to change out the whole front suspension with a small block suspension. This means the springs, struts, sway bars, and the spindles I think. Also the electrical is pretty easy. All you need is the engine wiring harness, motor, ECU and you prolly will want a 115MPH or a 145MPH guage cluster. As for it bolting up to the 700R4 you have, it won't work. You have to get a small block 700R4. The bellhousings are different and so is the strength of the innards.
