J35/J32 6MT Build

Ok so this will be my first time ever assembling my own motor & I wanted to see if you guys could offer some insight and help me put together a parts list. Right now I have a j35a3 block, j32a2 heads, & an 05 TL 6speed. My current plans are to go with the j37 intake manifold, cnc ported runners & b series throttle body. The main things I'd like to know tho is what are the parts (timing components, stuff around the block) that I need to mate up the heads and tranny to the block. Any advice is appreciated !

I know I need 05 RL Pistons to clear the valves, a butterfly delete kit, & Id also like to delete the EGR.

What exact gaskets do I need to get ? would it be a j32a2 headgasket or a j35 headgasket ? sorry if its a dumb question but thats what fouls me the most, would I need a j32 intake manifold gasket or a j37 gasket ? which timing components should be converted to manual ones ? do I need a starter from a manual ? a more powerful alternator ? Recommend some mounts !

If you populate the search field, on the link below, with either 'J35A3' or 'J35A3 swap' , you will find answers to your questions because it is all here somewhere.

False. Both the J32A2 and J35A3 pistons will clear the valves.

Just pretend you're assembling a manual J32A2 engine. This means all the timing belts and gaskets should be for a manual J32A2. The J35A3 has the same exact block case as the J32A2, so everything will match up.
