transdapt for motor mounts and i think they even have headers for this swap. you wont need much more than you already have. the tahoe harness is a goldmine of goodies. there are tons of threads on here detailing LSx swaps.

i plan to make my truck a fast street truck with plans to the track from time to time.you suggest makin the t56 fit or get a 4l60e trans that comes with the engine? which will hold best? gas milage is not an issue i think ill get pretty good gas mileage with a 2700 lb truck
