Default Lq4 into a 84' c10

I just bought a lq4 and planning to put it into my 84' c10, I'm pretty new at this, can anyone tell me what parts are required to make it happen and what things to avoid...I'm also looking to use my 350 tranny.... If any could help I would greatly appreciate.

What year is the engine? Is it drive by cable or drive by wire? Are you going to keep the truck intake or put a car intake on it?

im doing the same swap,th350 .carbed 5.3 though.dirty dingo mounts will get you were you want,truck manifold hit the frame on pasenger side.a/c wont clear frame ,although with the right amount of fab work it has been done.holley makes a a/c bracket to mounthe factory radial comp up high on the pass side like the orig ,use factory hoses.use a 2001 suburban upper hose.dipstick need to be a flexible one.will have to play with trans crossmember (move it forward or back and redrill holes,real easy).
