Default 66 riviera ls swap

I have a 66 riviera with a nailhead in it, im thinkin its to expensive to rebuild the nailhead, so i want to Ls swap it, i have a 6.0 4L80e but everything ive read so far says it might be difficult to do, soley do to the fact that the riviera has rear steering linkage and the X frame will need to be cut and that my oil pan needs to have a front sump because of a sway bar or something, has any one ever completed this swap im not putting a cam in(6.0) it just new gaskets and and changing intake...any advice can i keep truck headers and should i swap the rearend 😩 so many questions im new to it...thanks in advance 🤝

Welcome to LS1Tech! Here’s a link for a 65’ over on LateralG, where I did my build thread on my Chevelle. Owners name is Charlie Lillard and he’s a heck of a nice guy. This is a big money build...
