Default converting 5.3 truck motor to fit in LT1 camaro

If I have a complete pull out 5.3 truck engine and its going into a 95 camaro 6speed car I know most of the other stuff for the conversion but what about parts on the engine itself?
What all do you have to change?
Intake
throttle body?
Fuel rail and injectors?
What accessories will have to be changed?

thanks

Also, The LS1 vs the LT1 T56 is different in the input shaft, you would have to use the correct flywheel and bell housing.. or get a LS1 T56. Either way can work.
