Well, I would just port the oil pump myself and put a spacer (About 3-4 washers) in the spring orfice nearest to the plug.
Save $ and don't bother with the smooth bellows, it does not add that much, and unless you are going to be hard core drag racing and need every hundredth of a second in ET it will not matter.
If you want a rear end, I have a hookup with Moser 12 bolts from a friend, and could save you a couple hundred $s.
You will need to use the wiring harness, gauges, PCM, etc from the donor car.
