okay, i know all the main, big stuff i gotta have to have the engine running, but....

can anyone give me parts numbers or a list of all the fittings and misc. stuff i still will need?

stuff like the heater hose fitting that goes into the intake, oil pressure sender unit, temp. sensor and stuff like that

we need to know what you've already got first, then we can go from there.

i wanna replace every fitting i need to have.

so, in that case, i dont have anything.

all i can think of at the moment besides the 3 i mentioned in the first post, is the manifold vacuum connector.

If you have stock gauges then you should be able to get the replacements easy from a dealership. On the fitting for the heater hose go into the HELP! section at an auto store and look for a 5/8 hose barb heater hose fitting. I'm thinking the pipe thread is a 1/2" NPT or 3/4" NPT. I'm betting 1/2"

You should be able to use everything off of the old 305. I used almost everything off of the 4.3 when I swapped. I did get new sending units. Just ask for something from like an '85 and earlier truck with the 350.
