Default LSA in a 91 Camaro

I have wanted to do this for a long time but didn't quite have the money. I am retired and can afford to do this but wondering if anyone here has done it and any special problems I may run in to over a ls1 or 3 swap. I am talking about the supercharged one in the ctsv. Can someone tell me if the engine externals are basically the same as far as what accessories can go on the front of the engine. Thanks in advance.

Running a Tremec tr6060 which is a 6 speed manual. It's the whole drivetrain out of a 2013 ZL1 Camaro with only 1200 miles on it with the exception of the rear end which wouldn't work for my application. Hawks built a heavy duty 3rd member for that.
