For the 71 part you'll need the hoses, hose bracket, and steering gearbox. For the engine you'll need the pump, pump brackets, bracket adapters, and pullies. You'll want to be sure you use the 69 351W 3-bolt crank pulley and harmonic damper. The 69 offset will not line up with any of the later stuff, so don't even try to mix and match. The 69 stuff is available new, so if you can't find it you'll be OK.

The 69 Cradle bracket will be made of aluminum (C7AA). If you acquire a Cradle bracket that is made of steel, it won't work. Pump pulley has to be a straight up (7AA/AF/Etc), Steel support HAS TO BE 67-69 Small block. Pump can be BG/BF/BK style thompson-TRW.
