getting really close to ls1 swap

ok so i have pretty much everything i need accept for p.s. hoses. fuel lines. and the t56 swap mount and tq arm and clutch. i think it would be possible to have my whole swap done in under a week. provided i have all the necessary parts. its my daily driver so gotta get everything. is there anything else that people dont normally think about that i might need?

It would help if you listed what you already have, you listed what you don't have only.

Ok, so it sounds like you have motor, trans, engine mounts, and thats it.

So you need a fuel pump, a notched (or tubular) k-member, fuel pressure regulator, wiring, air intake of some sort, A/C lines, the power stearing lines without the cooler, radiator hoses, ummm, thats all I can think of off the top of my head
