The oil pan will fit no problem. But you will need to get a windage tray spacer kit to clear the crank. Also depending on the timing set, you will need an Ls2 front cover with a cam sensor and extension harness.

i used some washers stacked together to clear the windage tray...just an idea!

Same here. I would already assume that you know you need a new intake for the rectangular port heads if you don't have one.

The LS2 front cover will a PITA if you use a double roller chain. The boss for the bolt that holds the cam sensor in place will hit the timing chain and you will end up grinding the **** out of it.

Is the LS3 set up with the correct reluctor wheel on the crank?
