I am doing almost the same thing. Except my car was a V6. Can you give me a few pointers? Where are all of the vacuum lines supposed to go. I do not have HVAC so I believe that eliminates one of them. I know that my LQ9 has a hole on the drivers side valve cover where the brake booster vacuum usually goes on the trucks. What valve covers did you use. Any help would be appreciated!!!

There are a ton of other builds that have LOTS of info about this swap, search or just look around the conversion/hybrid section or the internal sections. Good pics to look at as well for help IMO. I would use stock fbody valve covers as you wont see them anyways if using stock coil packs in stock location and they should be cheap to find. Good luck!

I have looked and looked for this info. Couldn't find anything. Trust me. I look first, then ask.
