Check out the conversion section. Lots of info in there..

BTW. I would try to get a LQ9 insted of the LQ4 inless you putting a turbo or somthing on it... The LQ4 has a dish piston and the LQ9 has a flat top..

Jakeahs04, I see you are new to the board. Welcome! I am going to move this post over to the conversions section as it does not belong in the LTx forum. Also, try using the search function as many people have done this swap and there is alot of information available from past threads.
