What all is needed from donor vehicle?

I bought a LQ4 and I have to take it out. I can get anything off the truck I need. I'm not gonna be using the trans cause I'm going th350. I know I need engine, accessories, and harness and pcm.

I guess I need data link connector too and gas pedal. What about fuse boxes under hood and under dash?

I would get as much as I could off the truck. Little bits and pieces will be needed as you go along, and if you dont need them, on sell them later. Nuts and bolts, brackets, hoses, as much wiring as you can get, fuse and relay boxes also.
I bought a whole wrecked car to do my conversion, and it was surprising what I used.

Don't forget the TAC module and the short harness between it and the gas pedal.

Just wondering why the TH350 choice as opposed to a 4L60 or 4L80?

I have a TH350 on the shelf and ready to go. I'll never use another 4L60, at least in something that has some ***** lol. and a 4L80 would be nice, but weighs twice what the TH350 does.
