For my 92 k1500 with nv3500 and 6.0 swap I used the stock 90's model throw out bearing, stock 90's model clutch(had to remove the dowel pins)Sachs 1050 flywheel, and Napa pilot bearing 6302-vsp43. Should be the same for your set upQuote:

i Ran this flywheel. It will mate up with both the old style clutch or the new LS style clutch without having to cut or drill dowel pins
use the ls7 pilot bearing

I'd love to go with that flywheel but it's a little out of my price range ,, thanks for the info
Was the pilot bearing you used thicker to make up for the shorter crank on the LS gen engineQuote:

did your original pressure plate bolts thread into the new sachs flywheel?
No. The original bolts are SAE and the sachs flywheel is metric thread. I purchased LS1 pressure plate bolts and also LS1 flywheel bolts. The stock pressure plate also needed to have the bolt holes reamed out a tad to fit the new metric boltsQuote:

Brianmcb,,, did you run into any issue with the slave cylinder mounting up?? I will be doing my swap in the next week or so,, just trying to get everything organized so I won't have alot of downtime with the truck not running
No issues with my slave. Clears the sensor that sticks out of the oil pan to. I'm even using the stock throwout bearing.
sounds good,thanks for the reply
Brian,, did you fully seat the NAPA bearing into your crank? I had the mcleod bushing and wasn't really satisfied with it when I put in in my crank... I feel more comfortable with and acutal bearing.....
Not fully, but damn near.
When almost fully seated was part of the bearing still sticking out past the end of the crank?
Message me your email address and I'll send you a pic of how mine looks with the flywheel
brian , did you use your dust shield on the swap?
I think I used the plastic dust shields that were on the 5.3
