6 bolt swap advice

I have a 92 awd laser. I'm picking up a rolling 97 talon shell awd 5speed. I'll be putting the whole 6bolt long block into the shell.

Currently on the 92 long block:
6 bolt all stock
new timing, alternator, p/s belts
new water pump
6 puck clutch

Currently on the 97 shell:
ecu dsm link v3
2g power steering
2g radiator
2g wiring harness
2g axles

Any tips on doing the 6 bolt swap?
I'll be picking up a 96 tranny/xfercase from golden763.

My to buy list:
2g alternator
2g starter mounting bracket
2g engine mounts
1g/2g conversion adaptor harness from magnus motorsports
2g isc and fuel rail??? (Is it necessary?)

Am I missing anything else? Give me some tips and advice for doing the swap. I've been reading a lot of write ups and posts on how to do the swap. Just trying to make sure I have everything. I've pulled a few motors from a 1g but this will be my first attempt at a 6 bolt swap into a 2g. Never touched a 2g. before. Leave tips/advice. Thanks
