Default 1997 v6 4l60 to 5.3

I bought a 4l60e out of a 1997 v6 camaro for my C10 5.3 LM7 swap.
can anyone tell me what kind of torque converter I need now?
I know i need a crank spacer and I already replaced the bellhousing because the old one was cracked

The V6 bell housing, torque converter and input shaft will not work on the LS engine.

torque converter and input shaft can work on an LS
it's not ideal and can be a pain to make sure you get the right mix of parts, but it is definitely possible

Thanks for your response.
could I use a larger 5.7 torque converter with a crank spacer?
