Default need some swap info

Ok so, I have a lq4 engine that runs. I can pick it up for 200$ which isn't bad. I would put it into my 94 lt1 z28 . To complete the swap I need the ls1 steering rack , a new intakex and my harness re worked to fit I to an obdii. Am I missing anything ???

If using the late 4th Gen K-Member, he would not need "conversion Engien Mounts"... it would be a bolt in using the stock mounts.

But there are many early 4th Gen Swap, suggest you research those threads.

Front end Accessories (alternator, PS, AC units and brackets).
ECM/PCM
Fuse Box
Air Filter setup.
Exhaust system.
etc..

What Trans are you expecting to use ?

If I can get it cheap enough the 4l80e its attached too. If not then it will be the 4l60e until I can get w 400. Also I would be using a turbo k member for a manifold turbo kit next spring. I would just like to get it running this year
