Wiring is going to be your biggest hurdle. Decide what you're going with and what type of TPI you want(MAF:85-89 or MAP:90-92):
A. Go aftermarket (painless, etc.)
B. J/Y (stock route)
C. Ship yours out to get converted (check out that tpi sponser add up top)

Then, you'll need either used 350 headers or go with some aftermarkets. You need to grab an ecm too. Other things include fuel lines, fuel pump 40lph minimum, tpi throttle cable, and thats about all i can think about right now. I know im forgetting a lot! You should do a though. This has been covered endless times.
