Default Need Help with MPFI swap

I am getting ready to start my dpfi to mpfi swap over spring break. I have the ecu and manifold with all the sensors. I still need a distributor but are there any other parts you guys would recomend while i am working on this? Is there anything i should replace now? Any suggestions that are helpful would be nice. Also is there any problems that you guys ran into that i should look out for while i am working on this?

That is good because there is an hf at my local junkyard. I was pretty sure it was 4 wire to add and then some repinning. Now i just need a new intake manifold gasket and the plugs. Anything else?
