Default I want a LQ9 in my 97 WS6 formula....

I know to put an LSx motor in my car i'm supposed to have to get an LS1 harness, computer, oil pan, and intake. I already have access to a low mileage 4l60e from a 99 Z28. The problem is i'm trying to do this on a budget. And with the cheapest F-body oil pan i've found being over $300, that budget keeps getting higher. I saw they make LS1 oil pans for old A body cars as cheap as $70. Could i use one of those with my old K Member? Any other surprise costs i might run into on the swap???

The harness will have to be modified to work with the stock gauges. You'll need a new K-member and steering rack.
