Default Need help with LS1/LS2 SC conversion

So I bought a used Maggie 112 HH off an LS2 guy for my LS1. Magnuson told me all I should need is a knock plate sensor and TB adapter so I am ordering those today. Other things are starting to raise my curiosity as to what other mods might need to done. Please give any guidance you can think of regarding problems I will run into and how to get by them. Heres what I got so far

1. Wiring: LS1/LS2 TB wiring harness adaptor needed
2. LS1/LS2 throttle body adaptor (since LS1 is 3 bolt and LS2 is four bolt
3. I have heard that the maggie might not sit right since the fuel rails and injectors for LS2 are way different than my LS1....True?

Thanks in advance

You may want to post a question in the CTS-V section. Maggies are a popular CTS-V mod. The 2004-2005 CTS-Vs had the LS6 while the 2006-2007 CTS-Vs had the LS2 - so there have been some CTS-V folks adapting Maggies between the GenIII and GenIV platforms.
