EDIT: i just realized i posted this in the wrong section, i dunno if a moderator could move it to the LSX section or something?

Hi my name is Brandt, i have a 1990 454 ss truck that was grandpas until he passed away and my dad passed it down to me on my 16th birthday a couple years ago. The motor has needed to be gone through since i started driving it, i just recently graduated and i plan on using the money i recieved to convert my truck to the LQ9. I plan on keeping this truck for a while and i dont want to go carb because of the hassle of keeping them jetted properly and the weather around her is anything but stable.

My question is what am i getting my self into? i know im going to have to wire it, change motor mounts, install the electric gas pedal, but is there any other hidden secrets?

A local salvage yard has the motor, wiring harness, gas pedal, and tranny in a vehicle that was rear ended, im getting it all for 2300 and they are going to remove everything once i give them an answer on if i want it or not.
