Don't do it unless you have a complete donor. Many things are needed including computer, wiring harness, gas tank (including fuel pump), gas lines, air filter housing (which has the maf sensor) and lots of other stuff. I've done it, and without a donor PU sitting next to it, it would have been impossible or at least very expensive.
