You will need to swap all your accesorys The only thing that wont line up is that there wont be a hole for the alt., but you can run on just the two. Happy swapping.

you have to drill a hole in the new block for the alternator... its easy. put the alternator bracket up to the block w/o the alternator on it, and line up and center punch the upper right mounting hole. you can either drill and tap it to be the same size as factory or you can just run a 3/8-16 bolt.. has to be around 4.5-5 inches in length.

Yep just swap them over you will also need to lengthen the cam sensor plug. The LS1 is on the side next to the start and the LQ4's is on the top rear. Almost were a distributer is on the old v8's
