It does not take that many parts to do the coversion, but you got to make sure you got lots of time to do it. It looks like a easy conversion but by the time you are done, it's going to be 1 month and couple 100$ in extras later.
Very importand item is to vent your gas tank.
Make up your mind ahead of time on the way you going to supply fuel to the carburetor.
Depending on the intake you going to use, you will need to get water neck, because your stock one might not fit.
Make room for the fuel regulator, if you going to use one.
Make decision on where and how to mount the fuel pump.
Depends what kind of transmission you have, you can call Jeg's or Summit and they have Brackets for your aplication.
I would spend few $ for fuel pressure gauge too.
If you need any more help, just ask.
