you will need an
1. complete engine/transmission
2. wiring harness/computer
3. v8 motor mounts and possibly a v8 k-member
4. v8 gas tank/fuel pump/fuel lines, if you just want it to work, then you can get an inline fuel pump and redo the lines however you want.
I think thats it but I am not sure, it should fit otherwise because those cars were made to be able to fit the ls1 in them.

you can also do a search, there is a lot of information if you spend time to look, searching is easy its the finding what you want that is hard. Good luck
