I am also interested in this swap, although my z car is a 1977.  I have found locally a 1985 VG30ET that includes the 5 speed, all the wiring, and fuel tank.  I have heard an audio file of the car running before it was dismantled.  The engine has 120,000 on it.  Sounds like I could get the whole setup for about $800.  I am reading all I can find on this swap.  I already have a sbc and muncie 4-speed for this car but I am rethinking the whole V8 think for this turbo V6.
