Default 5.3 68 camaro swap parts list?

hi everyone,

i recently have gotten my hands on a '68 Camaro that i want to put a previously acquired 5.3 and 4l60 tranny in. I have my wiring harness ready and waiting.

Has anyone previously compiled a list of parts necessary for this swap? I can scan through all the threads, but thought maybe someone has already compiled a "hit" list they would share.

thanks so much

Biggest expense will be your swap headers and computer. I'm doing an ls swap on my 68 as well if you have any questions shoot me a pm
