Default V1 LS2 & T56 into Gen 2 Wagon?

Hey guys,

I had a decently built V1 get totaled due to roof damage caused by a storm in June. Now I'm sitting with a 420 whp LS2 without a home. My thought is to buy a base rwd CTS wagon and swap the LS into it. Kinda backwards from the normal around here as I already have the engine/trans, I just need a plan on what to do with it.

Help me figure out what to move forward with and how..

I can't imagine the swap would be overly difficult minus some slight differences in water pump/radiator, power steering, and maybe air conditioning. Electrically speaking I have no idea how the two would mesh.

Is there anything obvious or glaring that I'm overlooking?
