Heads, camshaft, intake manifold, exhaust system complete (from the manifolds to the cat-back), ECM, engine harness (or modify yours), fuel pump, air filter housing and plumbing...

It can be done, but you need everything. If you can find a complete wrecked car, that's the easiest way. Next, is making a long list, checking it twice, and hitting the classifieds here, wrecking yards, craigslist, eBay, etc...

It's been done, so don't give up!

Good luck!
