    I know this is a dick thing to say but just search for VG33 swaps. It honestly has been covered time and time again.

    Yeah, search and you shall find the answers, but the way you search is also important. The search function on the site is much better than it used to be.
    You can also use google to search using the site: function

    example:

    site:z31performance.com pathfinder

    The information is all here.

    enjoy building it yourself.
    if it fails, fuck it.
    at least you gave it a whirl.
