Default 6.0 from 2500 HD into 1974 impala?

Planning to go carb with the motor. What will I need to keep from the HD pickup as far as ignition is concerned? I know I will need all the coil packs. Is there any part of the wiring harness that needs to be kept to plug into the carb MSD ignition box?
Also, does anyone make headers and motor mounts that will make this swap easier? The transmission will be a TH350. Will it bolt to the 6.0, or will I need an adapter?

Search, I've got an LQ4 in my 73 Impala. Standard sbc/LS adapters will work fine, th350 will bolt up but you will need a crank/flexplate spacer and elongate the bolt holes on the factory faceplate so the torque converter for the th350 will bolt up to it. F-body headers will work as well.
