For those in the know, what do I need?

Ok, after looking at several options, I have decided to buy this Super Coupe. Plan on dropping the SC V-6 in the '94 Vert for now and maybe in the '68 Coupe down the road. The body on the SC is toast. So, it will be scraped. For those in the know, what do I need to take off this SC so I'm not going to say :censor: after the shell goes to Moffet.

Get the wire harness. You'll need to rewire some of the sensors and their connectors when you do the engine swap.
Give some thought to the rad too depending what you plan on doing with the intercooler.

Is there an intercooler on a Super Charger? (Paxton)

Is this a stock 3.8 Supercharged? If so it's a roots style blower and yes there is an intercooler, and related piping you need to take with..

Basically strip it of the motor / trans, wiring harness, EEC computer, all related underhood stuff like air inlet [are them cars maf?] all sensors etc. Take don't dont think you'll even need cause you can always toss it later.
