JMO, I would suggest listing a few things that you want to achieve with the swap such as:
- car will appear stock (no hood mods, hood or fender louvers, side exhaust)

- complete within a particular budget and time frame.

- availability of the engine, trans, diff and aftermarket parts.

The measurements are ok to have but unless you’ve done some sort of swap or two before, it would be better to swap an engine that has been done and even better if there is info available from one or more individuals who can share their experience.

Just my .02.
I’m only at the early stages of my swap so take my comments accordingly.
