mpfi v6 to carb 350 t5 swap

alright guys. so my 2.8 developed rod knock and so im just swapping to a v8 instead of rebuilding the little v6. ive purchased an older chevy 350 with the 3970010 casting number and a good t5 tranny. however the engine was on an auto tranny before so i need to get the correct clutch, flywheel, and starter for it. also need to know what stuff im gonna need to rewire and what hoses and connectors im gonna need for fuel and etc. also any other parts i may need. thanks and i cant wait to hear back. haha wanna get goin on this asap

Is it a V8 version? Does it have the bell housing and all the clutch release stuff?

For flywheel, clutch, and starter, just the '83-'85 f-body V8 application replacement stuff.
