You also need to replace your wiring harness since your's is an auto you will need a manual, unless you like to bypass and splice a shit ton of wires. but easier to replace the harness for a manual. also get the same year as your car.

you're also better putting it up on a lift to get under it and take the 8 bolts off. personal experience of being under a car and taking it off was a pain.

not sure what tranny you're going to put it, but whatever one you get get the flywheel and clutch for that tranny, they have different bolts holes and wont match if you get two different ones. like if you get a w58 flywheel wont work with the R154, not sure if you didnt know that.

Get Redline tranny fluid, heard it was the best but I'm using Royal Purple and works pretty well for me, shifts like butter =]
