Default Bolting up an th350 to LS1

Ok, im sorta new here so bare with me.

I am swapping a 6.0 liter into my thirdgen...And i have a built th350 already(from my last set up).

I was wondering what it will take to bolt the th350 to a 6.0l....Is it a direct bolt up? If not, what will it take to work.....?

Also, how would i get the tranny to work with the 6.0, in meaning to the kickdown cable....??

Any feedback is useful!!.....

thanks

it will bolt right up, it just dosnt use all the bolts. I dont remember which ones dont get used off the top of my head.

I used a Th350 converter in it with no problems.

I dont have a kickdown cable on mine, so i cant help you there.

I cant help with the kick down either but i ended up getting a TCI flexplate as well that was universal.

Either vacuum modulate, if you want an "automatic" or get a manly shift yourself-o-matic RMVB.
Definately replace the stock flexplate bolts when you do this operation. I have reused my stock ones too many times and now am looking to order the ARP ones used in an M6, which work fine since the TCI flexplate is thicker.
