It really depends on what he stripped out of there. but you will need to get an fbody engine harness and computer or modify the truck one. do some searches on 6.0 conversions because you will need to change accessories and intake etc to make the lq4 fit. as well as hoses and radiator etc.

All accessories have to be changed and the intake to get a truck motor to fit in an f body

this is more directed at the 5.3 crowd but its very similar except for the alternator that needs to be drilled on the 6.0 block
