rb26dett into 98 S14

hi all
my car is a mostly stock 98 240sx s14.

I am posting this hoping for a lil heads up on what to watch for and what to consider. i have a seller for the rb26dett motor, rb25 tranny, uncut wiring harness, and limitied slip diff. its mostly a clip except for the tranny im assuming. good price on it but what else do i need to consider for cost BESIDES labor charges. i.e. - driveshaft, motor mounts, all those things that you who have done this before have run into.
any help would be appreciated, thanx

Well if ur really planning on doing this,remember u need to get rid of the clutch fan and get some electric fans plus a new radiator like a KOYO or Fluidyne are some good choices,and if u dont have one already an LSD for the car would be awesome

Yeh, I think it has been covered a couple times right? If you need motor mounts, Q45 mounts will work, I belive.
