Chevy and GMC Duramax Diesel Forum - View Single Post - I may be getting a 6.2 longblock... What is required to make it a runnable engine?

The truck has a 2.2L four cylinder gas.
I'm wondering what I need to take a long block motor, and turn it into a "crate engine".
So I'd need the valve covers, oil pump, oil pan, intake manifold, pullies, etc..
I'm looking for a list of components I'd need..

I'm going to see how much stuff the guy has, I might be able to get more than just the long block from him.
Its a 1982 6.2, mechanical, 4 bolt main.

As far as I know, I can use 350 gas motor mount kit.
