Default question on 6.0L retrofit

ok guys, i'm a newby here but i'm hoping you can help me out. here's the deal: i have a 6.0L long block laying in my garage with 5K miles on it. i got if from the dealership i work at as a warranty engine. it had a knock in it so they replaced it. i believe it was out of a 2001 truck. it has the 317 heads on it. i am a mechanic so i'm not afraid to fix the problems with the engine. what i'm wanting to do is put it in my 68 camaro. my questions are: what intake, injectors, wiring and computer would i want to use? would the computer need a custom program for the bigger displacement? what cam would i want? any good places to pick this stuff up fairly cheap? thanks for any replies.
