Yes, your intake, accessories, etc will all swap over from your 4.8 to an LS1. This question gets asked almost daily, usually with a 6.0 swap though, but the externals of the blocks are identical. Do a quick search for 6.0 swap or even LS1 swap and you'll find multiple threads with the same question and answer I just gave you

An LS1 will not fit in your truck no matter what you do. Trust me, I've done all the searching you can do, it's a good thing you weren't willing to look on your own first, that would've been a lot of wasted time!
