Default 5.3L LM7 into an FC RX7

Hey, this is my first swap and im trying to get the parts together to do it right. The goal is to put an lsx with a manual tranny into my rx7. So far, i have began refinishing the engine bay to prep for the v8. I am going to buy my mounts from either grannys or hinson supercars. i was just wondering what i need to add to the stock lm7 5.3L to get it running in the rx7. I ave been going through every page on the internet but i find nothing is specific or factual enough for me to beleive! If somebody could list what they think ill need it will be greatly appreciated.
THANKS!

So what i have gathered from the internet is that i need
ls1 intake manifold
ls1 throttle body
ls1 fuel rails
ls1 injectors

and as for electrical i am pretty confused..i remember reading about aftermarket harnesses that were pretty plug and play but cant find the link for that.

Any help is appreciated! I will also be posting progress of the build throughout the whole thing!
