Every LS1 or LSx thread applies to you to some extent. You probably have the LQ4 from a wrecked fullsize pickup, but you should specify where yours came from.

Moving this to the LTX/LSX engine swap subforum.

Read the LS1 swap sticky in the top section of this forum. It's basically an LSx swap, depending upon the year of your donor vehicle. You will need LS1/6 intake manifold and f-body oil pan and accessories.
