Default LS2 parts on LM7

So i was sitting in the garage drinking a beer watching formula D on speed channel when my new puppy goes and pisses on my LS2 heads from my GTO.. i spank him and rub his nose in it then clean it up.. It hits me like a sack of potatoes.. i've been thinking of what i can do to my truck to give it a bit of an edge after i lower it.. Why not put my LS2 heads, cam, intake manifold, and throttlebody on my LM7 in my 1500 sierra.. everything will work won't it? i could send my heads off have them ported and polished if i wanted as well.. i mean the bore difference in the 5.3L and the 6L is 5.59mm

Everything will bolt on, but no, it will not work.

The LM7 uses smaller valves than the LQ4 or LS2, to complement the smaller bore of the engine. You can put the intake manifold and TB on it, but you'd have to modify the accessory bracket and use an idler pulley relocation bracket to move the belt below the throttle body.
