I really appreciate all the help.
I am going to pick up my motor this week. Im hoping to get the swap done before the end if the month if money allows

[RedHeartbeat]

You're going to have it done before tomorrow is over?

I got the motor last night. One of the knock sensors os broken. Can I use the one from my 4.8 or do I need to buy a new one for the LS1

[Trevor]

they look identical. im pretty sure most of the sensors from your 4.8 will swap over

[Blue01]

Cool, Thanks. Looks like its going to be longer before it goes in the truck. I am going to go ahead and replace the oil pump and rod and main bearings before it I do the swap. Cheap insurance and piece of mind

Doing a ls1 swap myself. It will all be worth it in the end. I bought my motor thinking aside from upgrades I was good to go. I also am having to send the block off. Mine was cam bearing didnt look too good. If you are replacing all the other bearing myaswell do it too
