Thumbs up LT1 to LS1 conversion

I have a 1993 LT1 Z28 Camaro. My friend is building a 6.0 for his 1998 Z28 and so hes selling me his LS1. I want to put it in my car. Also, I would like to keep my 1993 6 speed if possible... though it may not be. If someone could list all the parts i'll need to do the swap, I'd appreciate it. Already, i know i'll need a new:

-PCM and wiring harness
-K-member
-motor mounts
-tranny?

A parts list and what is required to do the swap would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks!

you need to have the harness redone through speartech including a dakota digital tach adapter, you need the ls1 tranny/hydraulics.

one way to do the fuel system is to get a '97 vette rail/regulator from GM parts direct or dal.

radiator.

a/c doesnt match up, you need the lines grafted.

lt1 elbow/ lt1 style cold air or lt1 style ram air.
