Default 96' Camaro LQ4 Swap

Hey guys I have been slowly undergoing a conversion for my 96' LT1 camaro. At the moment I have a 414 LQ4 all forged pump gas motor with fully ported 317 heads being built, computer from a 2005 2500HD truck, a built 4L80E transmission, and a new moser 9 inch rearend specifically for the fbody camaro. At the moment none of the three are in the car yet I am trying to get all the knowledge needed before installing. I already have a bmr kmember installed for the ls engine and have talked to current performance about a harness for the whole swap which they say they have. Two questions I have right now pertain to the fuel system and driveshaft. For the fuel system I am planning on running the corvette filter/regulator to convert to a single feed for the fuel rails. My plan was to upgrade to the racetronix 340 LT1 pump but I do not know where the LT1 regulates it fuel? Will the new computer control the LT1 style pump with the new wiring harness? Secondly I was wondering if anybody knew exactly what driveshaft I need? Please Help!

Im going with the spohn standard duty adjustable torque arm, spohn non-adjustable tubular lower control arms, spohn non-adjustable panhard bar. I went with the spohn torque arm because it bolts up. From what ive read im limited to shorter torque arms because nobody offers a 4L80E crossmember with ability to relocate the torque arm. So i will be using the bmr standard conversion crossmember for 4L80E and the short torque arm with its own crossmember.
