Re: v6 to v8 swap LT1 into a 2002

Well the gauge cluster is different v6 to v8 so you'll need that, though I'm not sure if an lt1 cluster fits in the 98+ dash. You're going to need the harness and computer from the lt1 as well as dash and I think the radiator. I see adapting the computer and electronics to be the biggest issue. You'll probably want to upgrade the fuel pump. If you can drop the engine/trans out the bottom with the k-member and front suspension it should be pretty straight forward mechanically.
