Main things would be the 4 speed auto box and an EA 4 speed ECU.

Not sure about the little things such as wiring, brackets or anything though.

Might be worthwhile to see if you can get either an EB or ED fairmont wrecked and take the parts you need from them?

you'll need the transmission control module,,the ea's have a separate controller for the transmission and engine.
