re: LT1 swap need help
i would talk to pocket about the harness hes seams to be the wire master of the site.. altho its mainly lsx swaps.. i belive all u would have to do is get a wireing harness and computer from a 96 or 97 and it would be obd2

if u need to get it running asap just pull the motor and trans assembly out and get it in ur car and run the stock wiring and harness for now and when u can afford it or have the time then get the different harness

re: LT1 swap need help
im in the process of doing my lt1 swap also.. im using a 93 trans am tho.. nothing much different.. but as for the headers just pull the motor out and look at the heads if the headers fit up then ur good just get gaskets.
re: LT1 swap need help
98-02 manifolds wont work for a LT1. LT1s reuse the 3rd gen SBC exhaust. SBC headers work too, just be sure the primaries are 1 5/8" or larger to cover the special D-ports. You can buy D-port headers too, they're less common and more expensive than generic round port headers most mfrs build
93-97 Fbody LT1 LTs have the same problem hitting the frame rails as the LS1 cars
