Well, really only if you want to drive the car is there much to look out for. If you round up all the original factory parts and install them correctly, there will not be much left to look out for. If you found the transmission, can't you find the rest of the parts at the same place. It has been stated so often on this forum that to be really successful in this kind of swap, you should have the donor vehicle side by side with the car that is receiving the transplant. If you can't have that you better make sure you have everything you need before you start, or know where you can get without having to pay European prices and shipping from Europe.
