Default LQ4 in 01 camaro

I have scattered my block and am looking at swapping a lq4 in its place what all do i need to do to the block to be able to bolt it in. I am also running a t56.

Ex. knock sens. motor mounts.

I know this swap has been done before and if anyone knows any links pleas post them.

bolt ur pan, with tray and pu tube. crank pulley, knock sensors. oil psi, sensor. and will have to drill on tap one bolt for alt bracket. other than that it all drops in just like any other ls motor.

6.0 accessories stick out further than the fbodies. only a few sensors swap over. just go to oreilly or autozones websites and see which sensors have the same numbers for the ls1 and lq4. i cant remember which ones i used.
