LQ9 to LS6 intake Conversion help!!!

I have a LQ9 from an 05 Denali that I am putting in a 70 2wd Blazer. I had planned on leaving the stock intake on it but am considering putting a LS6 intake on it. What all would be needed to make the switch??

You will have to change the Water Pump. With doing that, more than likely it will be an F-body one that you will be able to get ahold of for cheap, so you will have to go with the F-body Acessories, Acessory Brackets, and Crank Pulley as well.

I have the new March LS pulley kit for camaros with all the accessories so that part would be covered. Curious why change the water pump? Is it a clearance issue?

the rad. hose (pipe) will hit the tb/cable cam area if using a truck waterpump.
