Granny's Speed Shop sells most of everything you would need. I have a friend selling his unused kit for a Ford 302 with a T5 trans. He will ship in the entire deluxe kit in the U.S. for $800 not sure on shipping to you I'm sure not that much more. I now own the 79 he was going to turn into a V8 drifter.

Parts are near Olympia Washington.

Cool sounds like its gonna be a great car I'm hoping to do a 350 sbc with a t56 or a ls1 but that more work and more expensive
