Default Engine Swap (LT1 for LS1 for LS6)

I have a deal going with my father. He wants to put an LS1 in his 96 TA(Auto), I have a 98 TA(M6) that he wants the motor out of, in return he will go in half on a crate LS6. Whats is all involved in hooking up an LS1 into a 96 TA? Will the tranny hook up, what will i have to modify? What about the 96's AC unit, how will it hook up? And what other things do I need to know about so there are no surprises when we get ready to do this. I HATE surprises! Please I need Info so I can make this work for the both of us.

Things I know.
The output shaft is different.
The motor mounts are different.
The entire intake setup is different.
There's more but my cab is here.
