Default 95 lt1 swap

I got a LT1 from a 95 Z28 Going into a 86 Monte Carlo which had a 305 in it. This is my first LT1. I also have the 4L60E tranny with all the wiring for the engine and tranny. What I need to know is.

1. Can I use my radiator or need a new one.

2. Can I use a inline electric fuel pump or replace mine gas tank with a pump installed tank.

3. Will the MC motor mounts work.

There more question but you kinda see where I`m going. I trying to eliminate as much time as possible cause I have my brother on my *** about taking up space in his garage. Any help on this will be appreciated. Thanks

1. I used my radiator on my 3rd gen f-body for my swap works fine not sure if the MC is a whole lot diffirent.

2. I would get a tank off a 4.3 MC they are set up with the high pressure fule pump. (might want to run new fule lines)

3.The LT1 mounts are no diffirent than a GEN 1 sbc.

You could probbaly google it I am sure you will get more direct info on what has to be done.
