Off the top of my head...
- You need to machine cuts in the receiver or cut down the trigger box around the valve striker to fit the upper onto the lower.
- You need to cut two slots where the barrel nut screws on to index the barrel and hopup assembly
- You need to machine down a rib where the bolt catch sits so it can engage fully.
- You need to file down the spring housing on the dust cover to close the dust cover.
The two slots on the assembly is the most tedious part, but much easier than before.

Thanks for the help guys! I'll have to go pay Wolverine a visit.
I'm curious, they have an M15a2 upper (Fixed carry handle) and I've heard that you can use real steel uppers on WE guns. Is this true? And what modifications are needed to do so? I think an m16a2 or FHC M4 would be pretty cool.
I'm looking to get rid of the KAC style rail if anyone has slim m4 grips, front sights, pins, etc handy for a trade.
