Research and read the FAQ section here in the LS section. Pretty simple swap. You'll love it when you finish it up.

Make sure to get complete engine to start with. Then get you some dirty dingo mounts, that will make a great start.

As others have said, do a lot of research. LS1Tech.com is another good source for LS information.
