Default LQ9/LS1 Into a 93 LT1

What major changes would I need to make to put a LS1/LQ9 into my 93 Z Other than the computer? Radiator? Can I keep my 700r4 (yes I have an early 93 non electronic trans and I'd prefer to keep it that way)? Other electronics the LT doesn't have? Etc. I thought that since the body styles were very similar between the 93-97 and 98-02 but there may be something I'm overlooking here. This is just in the brainstorming phase so before I commit myself with the new engine I wanted to get a good scope of what I need.

If you want minimal electronics on the Tranny, swap to a T56 bro.

As fun as manuals are, you can't get the consistency you get with the automatic. But could I use a manual wiring harness since I'm not going to have an electronic trans?
