Swap! LS1 or LS2 ? Help decide....

[cornfed]

Can someone please post up a list of the items that he should pull for me? I have no clue what I will end up needing in the long run but i'm sure if it's pulled right away that it will save me a bunch in the in the end.

Get everything that attaches to the engine and transmission- from radiator to drive shaft. Get the shifter assembly with cable, neutral safety switch/connector/pigtail, trans x-member, O2 sensors for both sides, do not cut the power steering hoses, pedals, wiring harness, fuse box.

For my g-body swap, bought everything from the radiator to drive shaft but didn't get the shifter and cable. I've spent ~$2-300 on trying to mix, match, & modify OEM parts for the trans. I finally made a modified the F-body shifter to mount in factory G-body mounting, used the 4L60 shift cable, and 1984 shifter handle. It sounds complicated, but the result is OEM functionality and finish.

Thanks for the list!! Would I still need the pedals if it's an Auto?

What is needed to hook up to my A/C box and stuff so the A/C works?

Only if you wind up with a drive-by-wire setup. I am using cable, specifically Lokar's LS1 cable.

I haven't plumbed my A/C system yet. I have a Monte SS. I bought the turbo Regal condenser because the fittings are on the right. When I get around to it, I was going to check out Aeroquip's DIY A/C hardware.

For my MCSS, I bought BGN gas tank, fuel pump, and sender instead of using an external pump.
