My 1985 C-10 Silverado

[thetrock]

Today I began my journey to swap a 5.3 LM7 into my 1985 Chevy Scottsdale pickup. I've been researching and reading a lot of forums over past couple months trying to learn as much as I can and trying to determine how I could acquire a good reliable engine and today I purchased my engine, which is a 5.3LM7 out of a 2002 chevy Tahoe with 160,000 miles and engine was still in car so I was able to listen to it run. Very clean engine and ran very smooth and air conditioner worked great! It has fan on it and it is a drive by cable. The harness, fuse box, PCM, radiator and cooling attachments will come with engine. He had already sold the transmission but it was a 4wd anyway so I'll either use my 700r4 that's currently in truck, attached to a 305, or find another 4l60E transmission. I'll be posting some pictures later.

Is there anything else on this donor car that I should try to get with engine? Also, any tips or suggestions that could in this project will be welcome.
