Default 81 vette LY6/6peed build. need lots of help!!

I bit the bullet and bought a real low mileage LY6. Its out of a 09 chevy 2500.
I did not even know it was an LY6. Anyway, im going to post pics as I go, and will have lots of questions

To start of with, how do i do away, or whats needed to delete the VVT. I cant use it because the Fbody pulley accessories conflict with the timing cover. I need a LS3 intake, Fbody oil pan, and all front accessories from the fbody.

But the VVT is my main concern for now. So whats all involved?? thanks

Thanks, yea, did a search also. threads to old, and not enough detail.

I dont want to spend alot of money on parts and find out I bought the wrong parts.

So I dont need a different valley cover?
