Default LS2 brackets on LS1

Anyone ever tried to put a bracket set from an LS2 engine on an LS1? I'm just wondering if it all lines up with the bolt holes and Crank pulley or not.
Or would it just be a matter of swapping the crank pulley to an LS2 pulley on the LS1 crank.

The bolt holes where the brackets mount should be the same for LS1/LS2/LS3/LS7/4.8/5.3/6.0 engines

I do know that I switched from the GTO drive setup on my LS2 to the corvette drive system and was required to switch crank balancer/pulley, I am also switching water pumps as well because I like the look of the vette waterpump.

Just make sure you get the whole drive system, brackets, balancer/crank pulley and of course bolts if you can. Those start to add up.
