Default Accessory and Swap Questions?

Alright heres the story.....Working with a Lq4 6.0 motor swapd into a thirdgen!!


Im swaping over all the accessories and just have a few questions! Everything im swaping over is from a 98 Ls1...


First, the oil pan.....This is a direct swap bolt on correct? I ordered a new GM 98 Ls1 oil pan/windage/pickup so i can put it in.....Am i missing anything else?

Second, The accessories..... I bought a new PSP w/ brackets, cranck pulley, alt w/ brackets , tensioner, w/p all from a 98 ls1........Will i run into any clearences or issues bolting it up? does this swap right over?




Also, i dont know if this is the right section but im wanting to do a stock cam swap....Meaning a cam from a Z06 or Ls7!

Which would work better w/o spending alot of money? I just want a little more power outta the motor w/o spending 400$! Im also using a th350 with a 3000-3200 stall!!

Is the ls7 cam too much? Or will it not work? If i swap a Z06 cam, do i have to swap over the pushrods and springs?




Please any help and feed back would be greatly appriciated!! Im a newb when it comes to Ls series motors and what will work with what!

YOU will have to drill one hole in the iron block for the alt. to work. It will have 2 bolts already in and you just drill the 3rd one . should not be bad.

all else should be fine.

i did not drill the 3rd hole and the alt will not move at all. mine has been that way for 6 months. its only needed for peace of mind.
