Default LS1 swap for an lt1 car

Is there anything special that needs to be done for an ls1 swap into an lt1 car?

You'll need a torque convertor like this to use your stock auto transmission...

It mates the LS1 with LS1 flexplate to the 4L60E like the f-bodies had. Its a great convertor with almost no miles on it. I took my conversion car apart.

Okay so I just need the torque converter and thats it?
what about electronics. Do I need to have some sort of custom harness or anything to hook up to the trans or something?

Thanks
