What more parts are needed for an lt1 swap with a donor car

I have a 96 lt1 camaro with an automatic. I'm planing on doing a motor swap soon. I'm wondering what exactly I will need to do the swap. So far I know I need an ac delete pulley and the painless wiring would help alot. I also know that I need to take the radiator\fans/hoses off of the donor car. Basically fill me in on any information I'm missing or point me in the right direction about what I need and what to take off the donor car. I've read the stickies.

Shop around.
Cheaper standalone LT1 swap harnesses are out there
