Kyle not sure if this helps but I just ordered a shortblock from TMS (the place you linked, also LS1Tech Sponsor... price was very hard to beat). Call TMS up, or shoot them an email.

All of the sensors and accessories will mount up as externally they are the same.
Those engines out in Kennewick aren't too bad of a deal....that's six hours of driving though. Hmmm. Still would probably want to rebuild it though. This gives me more to think about. What do you guys think about something like this:

I think it's going to be best for me if I am able to avoid needing any machine work, so I think a shortblock may be the answer. I'll have to do more research to see if the 5.3 blocks will cause any problems with sensors or accessories. Kinda new to this whole thing.
