You will need new engine mount pedestals for the 385. The trans mount will be the same as you now have so no change there. The hoses, etc. needed can be locally sourced so no need to order special.

Your TKO should be sufficient although you can have it upgraded to be safe.

Perhaps some throttle linkage pieces but the rods, etc. can be locally procured as well.
Thank you for your input. It sounds like I was not to far off on my initial list. I thought the hoses were specific but maybe that is something that I can get at the local NAPA. Do you have any input on the existing radiator? My car is #1867 so that helps my hood situation. I see where most use the Torker II but I have been told it is not ideal given my goals
