Default Sorry to sound like a broken !! Ls2 to Ls1 help..

Ok guys, this is what I got 2005/06 corvette ls2 58x reluctor, pics attached. Its going in a 2000 Camaro z28, blown ls1 threw a rod. Their is a forum about it or several but I dont want to jump on someone else's thread. This was recommended. To use an LS1/LS6 pcm/harness on an LS2, you will need a knock sensor extension harness along with LS1/LS6 knock sensors,and also a cam sensor extension harnessSDPC sells a kit with all of the plugs, dowels, bolts, and the other parts listed above that are needed if you have a bareLS2 block. It is $324.95.dumLS2PK - $66.95 It has all of the oil and water plugs and the main cap side bolts.LS2CK-1 - $249.95 This kit has the valley cover, front cover, timing chain, timing chain damper, crank key, lifter trays, and bolts.LS2CK-2 - $289.95 Same as -1 kit but also has cam and knock sensor harnesses.Scroggin-Dickey and Texas Speed sells these kits as well! Do I need all these kits. I have a short block with the 3 bolt cam. Please help, I feel stuck and need re-assurance. This is my first ls project. Also im going to do a step by step thread with video and would like if you guys could supervise and give me pointers. HHopefully this step by step video could help someone like my self in the future. Thanks.

Your also going to need a 58x to 24x converter box unless you pull the crank and change out the reluctor, that is what i did! i put LME billit 24x relucter in $180 installed. Dont use the new gm reluctors! there made in mexico, there 2 piece riveted together and they never go in straight! you only have a few thousands of runout to work with any more and yoyl have signal issues!
