The 4200 needs an ECM (engine computer) to make it run unless you want to go through the exercise of building a carb manifold and adapting a distributor.

If the engine is complete with the COMPLETE GM harness including the stuff from under the dash and you have the GM ECM then use it.

Megasquirt is an aftermarket DIY ECM http://www.msefi.com

As for metric bolts mcmaster-carr. Or the wreckers.

The '04 will be fine for what you want to do. No kits - its all scratch build.
