Converse Engineering V8 conversion manual questions

Guys

I had the following questions in regards to the Converse Volvo 240 V8 Conversion manual. How many pages is it? How does it compare to the JTR manual?

I was wondering if somebody could provide me with a summary or checklist of all the Original parts required for the conversion such as motor mounts, Power steering hose, Wiring harness etc. On the converse website these parts are listed:

Ford Engine related parts:

*E.C.U. (brain) with power relay next to it
*M.A.P. sensor and vacuum tree from fire wall
*Mass air flow sensor with rubber duct hose
*Cruise cable (if your Volvo has cruise control)
*Air injection and E.G.R. solenoids
*Oxygen sensors from exhaust pipes
*Flexplate flywheel with bolts and large dirt shield
*Both rubber motor mounts
*Mustang headers
*Engine wiring harness and harness going to E.C.U.
*Air pump tube, goes to exhaust system
*Coil, solenoid, throttle cable and V.I.N.
*Use all original accessories (alternator, starter, etc.)
*Cut off power steering high side hose
*Evaporator canister with purge valve
*Alternator and A/C compressor clutch plugs with wires
*A/C hoses (need both high and low side)
*Fuel hose barbs below alternator

Is this list complete?


Thanks

Mike
