As long as you still have your interior, you'll be in SM with all the other cars with swapped engines.

Tire pressure depends on tire brand but figure high 30's to low 40's depending on how much roll they have.

Shocks... I'd go stiffer in the hopes that the car will transition better in slaloms. Not having front or rear sway bars will hurt performance unless you get some really stiff springs (i.e. 700# fronts w/ 1000# rears).

Christian, who thinks the search function may yield some amazing information for you...

Yep, at my old job I used my 8-Ball to make all my important decisions. The scary thing is how accurate it is!
