new guy with some questions

hi all, new to the site and im looking to get some info. i just bought a complete slight basket case '50 3 window short box for $300. 1st off, s10 frame swap. i am planning on doing the swap, but i want to fab it up myself. has anyone used the kit and have all of the instructions they wouldnt mind emailin' so i can use it for some guidence? 2nd, for a 350 in this chassis, do the mounts have to be relocated for it to fit in the '50, or can i just buy s10 sbc mounts? and 3rd, has anyone done a body drop, but left the bed at the original height? if so do you have any pictures of the finished project? i would appreciate any info i can get as this is my first project this big. thanks again.
