Thumbs up Getting started, questions. 67 ElCamino/5.3L

Just aquired a 67 Elky and a 5.3L GenIII engine. Im not sure what trans im going with, more that likely a M22 munci sence its an original 3-on the floor. I wont have enough dough for a m6(yet). I tried search but coulnt come up with any info on this particular swap.

1. Engine has no accesories. what accesories from what car wil I need? Corvette? f-body? which will fit?

2. oil pan. Engine has no oil pan so i need to know which one will fit the k-member or will one have to be fabed?

3. Need a wireing harness. E-bay sells a few stand alone kits ranging from 100 to 400 bucks. are anyof theses worth it? should I go with a factory harness/ecm?

4. flywheel/bellhousing. WIll a genII bolt up to a m33 munci? will I need an adapter or specail bell housing. What flywheel do I need to look for.

I know I have a lot of questions but this board is full of knowledgable peoples, i know ill get some good advice and your conversions are what is inspiring me to do this.

thanks for any and all help!
