The Mckinney mounts are the only ones that are readily available. (I think) At $600 they are a bit pricey but the time they will save is undeniable. They list the driveshaft at $500. I have had several made locally with good results that have been around $300 for aluminum and a bit less for steel. The only other things you would need would be a downpipe and possibly their o2 spacer if the steering shaft is to close.
So it's probably about $1000 in parts if your creative. If you can do the install yourself you'll save quite a bit. I will help with whatever information I can. With the mount kit it will be a direct bolt-in. The only thing required to get it running will be some custom wiring which is generally not a big deal if you can read a schematic and use a soldering iron with moderate proficiency.
Remember, I'm doing a swap from a complete clip, which essentially means you'll be getting all the parts you would get if you purchased a complete clip because there will be a great deal of parts that I will not need that will come in handy for a 240 swap.

Top hat has a cheaper mount kit, they are like 300. Or make your own with scrap, 20. Driveshaft, go get your own made, 250. Down pipe, just get an extended j bend, and two flanges, 80. Sledge hammer, to massage it in there 20. And then pay someone to do your wiring, if you cant do it yourself.
sound of a rb in your car....priceless

if you can give me a list of all that will be included with the engine i'll talk to my brother and he may be able to lend me the extra amount needed to install it...or he might buy it himself for his Z
