Default Keep which parts?

Hello all,

I recently bought a 2001 5.3 with 121k on it.

I am swapping it into my 91 240sx, and i need to know which of the 5.3 parts I need to keep.

I have a stock 98 ls1 intake that i plan to put on this motor, but do i need to keep any of the little parts and pieces from the stock 5.3 to use for my swap?

I will include pictures of what i got with my purchase.

If you can fit the truck intake under the hood of the 240 I'd use it over the ls1 intake.

Unfortunately it won't fit underneath the 240 hood.
