Default 4v swap whats needed?

i apolagize i tried searching can't find what i want. i'm bored with my bike and thinking about selling it and doing some work to the car. can't decide if i want to try and get a cobra/mach1 or just do a 4v swap into my gt. i remember this question bieng asked alot when i was browsing the forums some time ago but i cant remember what all is needed for the swap to work.

if i remember right i need:

motor
k member
ecu
wiring harness
fuel pump and injectors
headers and midpipe
if a cobra motor then new transmission but the 3650 should bolt to a mach1 motor (and i think the 99-01 cobra motor)

im mechanically savvy and so are a couple of my friends who wouldnt mind helping. what else is needed to do this?

Just get a Mach1 or N/A Cobra, everyone says that the 4v swap is more money/work than it's worth. With the money you'll be investing in a 4v swap, you could supercharge your car.

well yes and no. Depends on what your doing. I would run a 3v if I were you. The 4v is not worth it, unless you plan on porting the heads, if not then ported 2v or 3especially 3v heads will be much more reliable and make more power than stock 4v heads
