98 with a 8.3L and 9spd????

i read a thread about a 8.3 in a ford and have been wanting to put one in my 98b ext cab 4x4 3500 dodge. i planned on using a 3" body lift to help with clearence issues but what else would be involved in doing such a project? my truck has 250,000 miles on it and figured about 350,000 i would do the change. kinda wanted to get the stuff around ahead of time. does any one have any info they would share about such a topic??
