406 small block Chevy I presume.

What do you want to know? Expect to save a lot of money.

Set the engine and transmission in the subframe. Bolt up the diff.

You'll need a custom Driveshaft Shop driveshaft to mate the gearbox up to the diff. Not a big deal since it's not expensive. Just call them.

Mount your drive belt system.

Run all your plumbing for fuel and air delivery, cooling, power steering, a/c, etc.

Install your ignition system and wiring.

Very easy if you have carb(s).

Possibly. My firewall was moved back 6 inches. No hump beating was needed, but my T5 is really compact compared to yours.

That's why I said mount the drivetrain first before anything else. If you can't mount then spend money or quit.
