Default Im SICK of being SLOW!!! HELP with swap

I have a 98 v6 auto. I have a few bolt-ons and well I'm not satisfied with it. I have made up my mind I want to do a motor swap. Can anybody give me some advice?Has anybody here done it? What parts do I need besides the obvious? Please help before I blow up my car!!![:@][:@] Thanks

try adding a nitrous kit, it will really wake up that v-6
then when you blow it up put a 5.0 in there.

it will last a long time before it blows unless you go with a rediculous shot like a 250 shot, then it will last a couple seconds mabye.
