Ok I have been a member of this site since its first year but never ever thought about swapping a LS1 out in favor of something bigger. I found a good deal on a complete LQ9 out of a 04 Silverado. If i did purchase this and had it rebuilt what all is needed to make the swap work? I know i would go with a new cam but anything else? Intake?? I know many of you have done this or something similar. Thanks in advance!

yeah most of it like intake,injectors,fuel rails, exhaust manifolds or headers bolt right up. truck intake is too tall and ugly to go into a f body. U will also need a tune to get the car running it best if u go with a decent size cam.
