Default sensors???

ok so i wanna put all new sensors in my LS3 when it shows up, there is no point in taking the old ones out of my LS1.
my question is do i buy the sensors for a 00 trans am LS1, or do i need a different kind? im not sure if they will fit the LS3 or not, and i know the LS3 had a 58x reluctor in it, well mine will have the 24x so i know that plays a part in which sensor i need ..... i was told to just get the LS! sensors i just want to get a second opinion !!!

Put the proper sensors on your LS3 for a GEN IV engine. If this is going in your 4th gen, you'll need conversion boxes to adapter the incompatible sensors to run on your old PCM/harness

If you're running a 24x crank, then use a 24x sensor. Dont forget to swap the cam sprocket for a 1x from a LS2. LS2 cam sensor

Use the conversion kit for the knocks, drill/tap the block

Intake and TB sensors make no difference which is which
