Default Gen IV conversion kit

I have went through the stickies and I seen the parts I need which I have that list, but everyone was saying some of the sponsors sell a complete kit, but all the links posted in the threads are dead links and every sponsor site i go to I can not find them listed. Does anyone have an up to date link to where I can buy a complete kit so I can put a LS2 into my c5z

You want to convert a Gen IV engine to Gen III?

Pretty sure you need something like this:

I am putting a ls2 in my c5z. What I have is a ls2 block and rotating assembly so I can't use most of the covers on my gen 3 and I need the adaptor harness. There were a few sponsors that had a kit that including everything needed that wouldn't swap from the gen iii

There isn't a lot needed. If I remember you have to lengthen the cam sensor harness and swap the outer pins. I just build a ls2 and it was put in a car with a f-body harness/ecm. This is assuming the ls2 crank is a 24 tooth crank...most are.
