LS3 Engine into an 89 Camaro...

Hey, i was wondering if anyone might know about dropping an LS3 engine into an 89 camaro. I was considering the LS3 engine and transmission package that chevy offers but I can't figure out if it will drop into the stock 305/350 location or if it's going to require a major modification. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? thanks very much

Same as putting any LS engine into a 3rd gen.
