Keep looking. I've seen SD TPI setups incl. all sensors, wiring harness, ECM, and all the aluminum for as little as $250. This was in the want-ad about 2 months ago.

The in-tank pump is different (not sure about the filter), as is the air induction/filtering. Throttle, TV, & cruise cables. Charcoal canister hoses. Fuel lines @ the engine. Heater and upper radiator hoses. Distributor (I think - cap only, maybe?).

Make sure all the sensors are there, as well as the fuel pressure regulator, fuel rails, etc.

For $250, one would suspect some major pieces were missing.
