Default Clean Motor install

For you guys that have replaced motors in the past or fixing to.....

Not sure how to explain this without sounding to much like an idiot but. What all is needed for the motor besides like starter, water pump, etc? When i do my engine swap i want it to be as clean as possible under the hood. As in no wires showing and no AC. I guess my question is what all needs to be there besides the motor itself? Trying to buy up all the stuff so when i go home on leave in June it can be installed and drive it within a few days.

altenator, power steering if you keep the power rack, water pump, tensonior, and crank of course, basically you can delete the a/c and smog pump. You can get rid of alot of emmision crap as well

you have to get the kit for the a/c delete. it just moves the p/s pump up. and by power rack, he means the steering rack. if you're not changing it to a manual rack then you shouldn't even try to remove the p/s pump
