Default Ls1 to 6.0 iron block handling differences

I am building a Iron LS2 6.0 to drop into my TA. Can anyone comment on a first hand experience as to if the car will handle any differently in a daily driver street driven application. This car will never make it to the track.
I've have all the BMR sway bars all poly bushings and new bilsteins on stock springs that will be going into the car when the new motor goes in.

Just curious as to if it's anything to really be watching for.

i have an iron 5.3 in mine and im having some traction issues, im starting to think its weight transfer. its on v6 springs now with no sway and a solid mount tq arm so it kinda sucks in the corners.... but as far as handling when i first put the car together it was lowered 2 inches and still had the front sway bar in it it handled good. i also have all poly suspension bushings and kyb agx 8 way adjustable shocks
