Doesn't seem hard until you try to do it. All of the little things will nickle and dime you to death.

Here is a short list of what you need:
Plenum
Runneres
Fuel Rails
Injectors
Throttle Body
Base Manifold
Accelerator Cable
All the bolts
Gaskets
7730 ECM
V8 memcal/Moates adapter
repin your RS' wiring harness
fuel pump
fuel lines (im going braided for looks and lack of other options)
Misc sensors
.... I'm sure there is more, but I cant think of what right now...

Try and find a COMPLETE setup for a 92 or something on ebay, and then see what else you will have to get... good luck, and have fun
