It should pass no problem. Since the 02's don't have EGR, that's one thing you don't have to worry about. Most technicians won't be able to the tell the difference between an LS1 and an LS7, the details are very minor. The computer should not throw any codes either. Are you dropping in an LS7 crate motor? If so, you will need do something with the computer because the reluctor wheels on the cranks are different. I'm not educated on how to remedy this though. Do a search.
