Don't forget to get the flex and pressure plates. Tell the salvage yard that if its still in the vehicle you want all the nuts and bolts they pull off it while removing the engine and to cut no hoses or wires. Dont forget to get the PCM that came with that vehicle if at all possible. As for the fuel lines, yes, you can use them. Replacing the intank pump to a high volume pump is a must do thing. Chances are the fuel rail on the new engine will be a single feed rail requiring you to setup the fuel system with a regulator or you can go to a Corvette internally regulated fuel filter.
98 vortec v8 throttle cable works well but its a little long. The Impala SS has a little shorter cable that works well. I used it on my 92 conversion.
