The only K-member that is specifically used for lsx swaps is the AJE. I'm sure you could get the UPR to work somehow with the right mounts. Which you will prob have to end up making yourself. Or just sell it and buy the AJE stuff for $400 for everything.

Default mounts for fox body

Do a search there are guys on here who modified 4.6 mounts to use the UPR and other even stock K-members theres only one bolt that doesnt line up.

Most likely the headers will not work. Best thing to do would be sell those for a nice price and buy a set of $600 headers that are made for lsx fox's.
