Welcome to the forums. All of your questions can be answered by reading the lsx swap sticky at the top of the page. 84, its assumed your car is a carbed car and will surely need a pump upgrade. Swap parts are available in the lsx/ltx classified here, and from site sponsors and vendors.

There many ways to achieve the fuel pressure needed for the 5.3(58-62 ps1).

You need to read the swap sticky I linked above. These topics are all covered in detail..... You will find answers much faster than waiting for somebody to answer every one that's already been discussed multiple times in length. If you don't even try to do the research, it will be a long difficult project, that most likely will never get finished.

I am not trying to come across harsh, as it probably sounds like it reading text. Just trying to point you in the right direction
