Searched...not very lucky. What other parts will I need?

I've come across a complete 460 with manual transmission and transfer case, which I would like to use in place of my current setup, 351HO, C6. The truck is a 1985. I'm unsure of the transmission model, it's being said it's a 3 speed + OD. I will be converting from an automatic to a manual. Aside from the frame perches and motor mounts for the engine, will there be any other issues with this swap, such as transmission mounting, etc?

Ok, I've picked up a 460 with a C6 bolted to it. However, it's a 2 wheel drive C6, and the truck it's going to go into is a 4x4. I'm guessing I'll need to find a transmission shop to take my sbf C6 parts and put them in the bbf C6 so I can retain the 4 wheel drive. Anyone know about what that's going to run me?

What I've gathered to this point, is I'll need the motor mounts from L&L or similar, a rear sump pan setup, but I don't know what else. Anyone?
