Default How much trouble have i gotten in??

Ok, First off hello everyone.

Here is the deal i had an 87, but sold it due to my son being born. 3years later i get this longing in my gut for any F body.
I start shopping around and find an 89 that has been dogged out. Guy wants 1500 dollars i tell him 700 or nothing. He say my wife has decided to keep it, so I leave. He chases me down at the local pizza joint and says when can you have the money. I told him i have it now so i buy it and go get it. I knew the motor was in seriuos trouble so i pull it the first wekend then tear it down. Cracked head and block. Motor hunting time.

Ok, I find an 89 police interceptor motor for free so i take it tear it down, and it is clean as a baby bottom, no wear anywhere like the motor was never run or something. I start doing some research and come to find out the car was totaled with less then 300 miles on it. The motor has been bored over .040. but with e6 heads on it, so i go on a head hunt. Local mechinic needs some computer work done so while i am there i ask him if he has any 5.0 heads he says no but I have some heads form a cobra. I asked how much he said how much to fix this computer i said nothing he said ok there yours hehehe. (If my boss knew i would have no job). Anyway he gives me the whole upper half of the cobra cam, heads, intake, lifters, roller rockers the works, but no TB or Mass.

Now that i have bored you to death, I have 2 questions.

1.) Can i use the standard TB from a 89 gt on a 95 cobra intake just for a short period of time??

2.) Do I need to change any of the electrical ie computer??

3.) I know the heads are GT-40, but not sure if they are GT-40 or GT-40 P I have looked everywhere but all i can find on the heads it GT not the GTP some say i should see?

Thanks guys sorry for the long *** post
