Threads I've read on swap stuff some are old and company's have changed a lot of things so it's hard to get an idea of what works and won't work.
Sounds like you have a lot of knowledge about this and I thank you for your help.

Not a problem
You should set a budget to stick with (written out or spreadsheet works)
Many people have a "ballpark" budget and dont keep track of items, due to them seeing something "new and shiny" and they have to have it, but then they overspend when it is not needed or warranted, then fall short on having the funds to move forward and get key parts for their build!
Have to stay focused and ask alot of questions if unsure
Just because it is posted on the internet, doesn't make it true / correct
Even if posted by a "shop" ??
This site is better than others for that, but I have seen where a "shop" will post how to do a task and it is totally incorrect, unsafe or a hack job!
I have had people over to my place showing the work that a "shop" did on thier LS swap, best I can say to them is, "well they go it in the car"???
(unsafe wiring, fuel system, engine mounting,incorrect driveline angles etc, etc)
Do your homework/ research!
there is a lot of quality people, shop owners and vendors/ manufacturers here that are willing to help
