Default 5.3 Litre In A 94 Z28

Hey I decided to with a different route with the 5.3 seeing that I can't find a decent Mustang, to buy most of them are rusty or need a lot of work. That happens here on the East Coast Of Canada, 6 months of winter isn't good.. So I decided to put the 5.3 in my Z28, I have some question that i want to ask.

First question will the base-pan off my Lt1 fit the 5.3?
Second question will the 5.3 bolt right up to the 4L60E tranny?
Third question what kind of motor mounts will i need to buy?

I know i will need another computer and wiring harness any info will be appreciated thanks for the information.

If you mean the oilpan, then no - you'll need an LS1 oilpan, pickup tube and windage trey. there's going to be a TON of other stuff you'll need too
