tranny, engine mounts, possibly tranny mounts, what year are the engines?? are they EFI?? the radiator will have to swap, tranny cooler, exhaust, driveshaft may have to be swapped or chopped to fit...NOW DEPENDING if its EFI or not you will have to swap the ECU and wiring harness out....you can still use the same accessories like A/C and P/S the ALT may be a diffrent amp so check....its not that bad man.
