Default Need help reassembling 2002 LM7 5.3

Hey guys, first post!

I picked up a dirt cheap LM7 off of a farmer around my town here in Iowa the other day. My only major concern with it is it's been torn down to a long block (accessories and intake/ignition system). I believe I have all the bolts to put it back together but I want to make sure I'm doing it correctly.

The entire accessory system is pulled and the entire upper end (not including heads/vc) is pulled as well.

Is there a link or good point of reference to see how this reassembles? My biggest concern being which length and size bolts go to which locations. Does anybody have a teardown link or how to's on accessory swaps? I'm still searching but figured I'd ask the collective as a whole while I'm searching!!

I want to make sure I'm not missing anything before I decide to tear into it and go for a rebuild. I don't think I got hosed, but I want to make sure haha.

Thanks so much!

- Brandon
