Default K10 LQ4 swap

Hi all, I am planning an LQ4 swap into my brothers 84 k10. I have an lq4 in my truck, so familiar with that engine, unless someone recommends differant. Anyway, ive been doing some research about the mounts, tranny, wiring, ......anyone out there done this swap before?
The truck has the 4 speed with granny gear so i would need some kind of flywheel to fit the 6.0. Stock truck manifolds or headers? Good place to find engine mounts?
Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanx all!

Bill
