Default Need info on making LS3 swap.

I purchased a 1970 z28 it has a 383 alum head stroker motor with a 4l80e transmission.

I want to put a ls3 with a t56 in the car. This car has vintage air installed also. Here is my question and appreciate all the help I can get cause I know nothing about cars nothing at all. LOL

If I bought this motor right here just for instance http://houston.craigslist.org/pts/5368735912.html what else will I need to buy to make the ls swap work?

I mean everything have to buy like ecm, alternator, and anything else.

Also can vintage air be compatible with the newer LS motors?

I am trying to work out a budget to make this happen. Also any shops on here that do this type of thing because will be paying for it to happen I do not work on cars.

I appreciate any feed back or help you can give me.
