3SGTE Swap, Anything else I will need? Options

[cv7713]

The below engine may be in the near future. I have a 94 GT with the 5s. What else will I need? Will the stock cooling system be sufficient? I believe the 5s tranny bolts up correct? I would upgrade the clutch obviously. Also a new exhaust? Love the celi and just looking for a reliable engine with the great sound of a bov!! comments welcome

OK, here's what I am seeing:

Complete Engine, Harness, ECU, Trans, Intercooler, Sensors, Injectors, Etc...

86-89 3SGTE = $1,000-$1,350

90-93 3SGTE = $1,350-$1,800

94+ 3SGTE = $2,300+/-


Do these prices seem accurate or a bit high? I've decided to go with the 90-93 which I belive is 225hp+/- (which is plenty to satisfy my immediate needs). Stock ECU, stock intercooler, blah blah blah. I definately want to break to 300whp eventually but no time soon, I'm sure it will take time to gather the parts.

I've read the stickies and ALOT of other posts. Any words of advice before I embark? I enjoy wiring and am willing to take the time but I don't want to regret anything. Should I just fork over the $500 to have the wiring done?

looking forward to this fun project...
