Fuel tank & pump
Main harness and underdash fusebox
New hoses

These alone would set you back alot.

Not to mention you need to remove the dash to install the new harness, wire the fuel pump and install the tank and lines.

Then if you were to keep your Carb engine and convert it, it would be less hassle most likely to simply purchase a second hand EFi engine with all the components as you would need things like:
-rail
-injectors
-ECU
-Fuel filter

And most likely more things i cant think of.

Simpler to sell your car and buy an EFi model.

I converted my Carb EG to EFi when installing a new EFi engine. Was quiet a hassle so next time ill start off by purchasing an EFi model to begin with.
