Default V6 to LSX Swap Need Info

Ok guys, I'm not anywhere near new to tech or the fbody world. I picked up a 98 V6 firebird. Plans are an auto race car that has light street duty. That will keep my WS6 from getting cut up and sacrificed into a race car. Question is, I want to know what EXACTLY needs to be changed on the car? I know this many things need to be swaped:

Kmember
Steering rack
Steering linkage
ECU
Wiring Harness
Guage cluster

Don't tell me to search. I've searched and there are small gaps in the threads.

Steering rack is the same.
You dont "need" a cluster either.
The V6 fuel system is return style, V8 is return less. So you have to do something there. I just swapped the tank and lines.
