Default Switching from STS to Front mount

I've decided to switch from STS to a traditonal front mount. I'm gonna go with GT67 turbo and using the 6.0L truck manifolds. I know the A/C will need to be deleted and the alternator relocated to the other side but what else will need to be done and opinions on the switch...
