Buy Everything at Once or Piece Together

If piecing this together especially,, If I had never done this swap, I would make a list of the big and small items and be aware of what is needed and calculate general costs. Like, Brewers sells it all. But guy on here other day said, Wayne sells the rods with the levers ( at trans), levers not offered separately. So if this is the case, be sure those levers are attached to your shifter rods or the trans....
I bet it would be hard to put the full setup together for less than a $1000 now days.... Heck how many people would ask that for the trans , bell, and shifter... I would! Then the pedals, z bar... another $150-200, used hump $50, small new boot, bushings, pieces, rebuild for the trans?????? ha.. ca ching! but worth banging gears!!!
To me.
