    New guy from PA(help please)

    Hey everyone. Just checking in. I am new to the forum, but have been gathering info from it for awhile now.
    I have a 92 SCLB 2wd TBI 350 truck that is getting a
    -2003 5.3 LM7 converted back to DBC with supporting ECU
    -2001 harness I stripped down myself thanks to LT1Swap.com.
    -Engine is stock bottom end
    -PRC 2.5 heads milled .03"
    -High lift, low duration 110LSA custom cam
    -LS2 timing chain
    -LS7 Lifters/trays
    -Schoenfeld swap headers
    -Melling Oil Pump(was high pressure but swapped back to stock spring)
    -TBSS Injectors
    Truck also has
    -3.73 gears and auburn posi unit in stock rear

    I'm nearly ready to mate the engine and trans for install but I think I may have just run into my first problem...
    A friend had a recently rebuilt ls1 4l60e out of a wrecked 98 Camaro for a good price. I purchased it a few months ago and sat on it till now.

    I have a stock 5.3 Flexplate for my year, and a yank truck thruster 2600 stall.
    Oh and 1" setback motor mount swap plates.

    Will the fbody trans cause me any major(or minor)problems?
    I know the tailshaft is different but will the mount on the bottom still bolt up and work?
    Can I bend my 700r4 mechanical shifter bracket out slightly to make it work?
    Finally, will this cause any wiring issues(I think I read something about a park neutral safety switch issue)?

    Guys, I know that was a pretty tall order and longwinded. I just can't wait to run this thing and I don't need any hangups at the last minute.
    Thank You all in advance and Hello!
