Question Bosch VE to P7100 Conversion What do I need?

I would like to convert my 92 CTD w/ automatic from the VE rotary pump to the P7100. What will I need to get this done?

I am going to step it up for use in a diesel hot rod, street/strip truck. The body is a fiberglass M37 Power Wagon, chopped, channeled, lowered.... custom frame using mostly NASCAR type suspension components.

Short list -- new timing cover, new injector pump, new injector pump gear, a 2nd gen cam would be better but is not necessary, new injector lines, and new injectors. Should probably change the lift pump too.

Thanks

Looks like I can do it. Any suggestions for improving the output while doing the changes. This going to be in a diesel street/strip hot rod.
