The rest of the knock sensor, cam sensor, TB stuff is cable related.

Clutch would be good info also....
You must either grind a lug off one side of the block or cut the engine mount to clear the lug. I chose to cut the engine mount but neither are a big deal.
The choice of clutch requires a LS1 pilot bearing and slave and TO, not LS7 or LS2 even with LS7/2 FW, or you can use heavy duty LS1/6 clutch/flywheel.

Why can't you use the LS2 fwheel with the LS7 clutch? I have that setup in my car now and it works great, I have an LS1 though.

Do you know if this lug must be ground off when using a LS7 block?

I totally read what you said wrong, I thought you were saying you couldn't use the LS2/LS7 clutch.
Thanks I thought that would be the case.
Somewhere on here I saw a picture of what needed to be modified on the LS2 block but I can''t find it now...

The best way to grind that boss off is to use a skill saw equipped with a carbide blade... That boss will be gone in 60 seconds... Don't expect it to be pretty though...
