If you read some of the swaps threads that are posted here. You will need the same parts and equipement as they do, some time and $$$.

You woudl need the normal adapters, Tranny, Computer and harness (as you say are missing).. then add what will be needed to upgrade the fuel system for the required 58psi (intank or exterenal pump, regulator and filter).

The Computer / PCM will need to be flashed to remove any code that is not required and required to run (VAT is a must itme here). Depending on where you live and what smog laws and what equiepemnt (EGR, AIR, Purge valve, etc) is required to pass it (visual, dyno, sniffer, etc).
