3.2 conversion strip out

I just bought a rollover 86 Carrera. I sold the body and I am keeping the engine and trans to go into a earlier car.
Can someone tell me what parts to take out besides the computer, harness and DME relay? I only have this one chance to strip out what I want and then the car will be gone forever.
I did a search and did not come up with a clear list of what items will be needed other than the engine and trans.
Thanks in advance.......

Check this out:
http://www.pelicanparts.com/MotorCity/marcesq/

This guy knows what he's doing. I would follow everything he lists. I skipped a few things and ended up going back and adding them back ie: coil, oil temp sender, etc.

He also helped me out alot with my questions on this list. Having just done it myself, you can feel free to email me also if you have any questions.

BTW, you will LOVE the 3.2!! I added SSI's and a performance chip from Steve Wong and they made a huge difference.

what is the earlier chassis, that will have an impact as well. I put a 3.2 into a 1970.

I think it will end up in a Euro 77S that has only 54,000 original miles on it. Thanks

the website refered to earlier seems pretty good, I have not studied it but off the top of my head, here is what i can remember,

Fuel pump,
all the oil lines you can get,
the bigger gas tank if it is bigger
bigger oil tank
all the electronics under the drivers seat
oil cooler
the 14 pin connector on both the motor side and chassis side
all the fuel lines front to back excluding the ones in the tunnel


Basically you will need to handle the fuel, oil and ignition. So swipe everything associated with those systems.
