I'm going to be doing a big block swap on my '72 Monte this winter. Currently, I have a 350 4bbl, TH350 with a 12 bolt read end. I'm getting a rebuilt '75 big block that has a distributor, plugs, wires, Edelbrock intake, water pump, 4 speed flywheel, oval port heads and valve covers. I did some research online and this is what I gathered I could use from my 350:
Quadrajet carb (for now)
Power steering pump
Alternator
A/C compressor
Fan
Water pump pulley
Fuel pump
Already has big block springs in front
This is what I saw that I'd have to purchase:
Motor mounts
A/C compressor bracket
Power Steering pump bracket
Alternator bracket
Crank pulley
Exhaust manifolds (someone recommended Hooker 2" comp headers for easy installation)
Starter
168 tooth automatic flywheel
Big block fan shroud
Longer throttle cable
Possibly shorter valve covers to avoid hitting brake booster
Possibly a new radiator?
Does this list sound correct to you guys? Am I missing anything? Where is the best place to buy these brackets? A came upon SS396.com, which seems to have everything. It's geared more towards Chevelle's, but didn't know if there was somewhere else I should look?
Thanks
