95 LT1 into 83 camaro

I fell into a great deal and bought a complete 95 Caprice Classic in excellent shape, but the LT1 needs a new opti and water pump. My 83 Camaro 5 speed has no engine as it blew up. So, I'm putting the LT1 into the Camaro. Can I use the ECM harness and computer off the Caprice? I plan on selling the Caprice minus the engine for body parts as it is in great shape, no dents and the paint is excellent. What other problems will I run into? Thanks guys

The engine mount locations are different on an LTx vs SBC.

Pics of the Caprice? I always wanted an Impalla clone with an LS motor...
