Default Parts needed to swap from LS1 rear calipers to LT1 calipers?

I'm doing this so that I can get my ProStars to fit without grinding. I have purchased the LT1 backing plates but was curious, I guess I'll need knew bolts, can the e-brake cable just hook into the LT1 setup? I know that the LT1 uses a different style ebrake...

Thanks,
Troy

backing plate. . .
diff gasket. . .
seals. . .
several quarts of gear lube. . .
this is for the disassembly of your rearend since you have to switch the backing plates.

Right, i've got the backing plates, seals, and new calipers. Any trick to the different ebrake setup? Did you just hook up your old cable to the new ebrake? Is it that simple?

Thanks again...

I didn't switch. Forgot about the e-brake. Don't remember what the early 4thgen e-brakes connection looks like. Sorry
