Planning a big swap

Ok, so I've been getting ideas to drop in an LS2 with a t56 into my bird. I was just wondering if it would be a direct drop in or what kind of modifications I have to make to make it work. It would come with the pedal assembly and ecu and everything needed really since I have the auto in my car now.

I've got a '99 Camaro with the 3.8 V6, and have been thinking about an LS2 swap myself.

But then I wonder if I'd be better off just selling it, and buying a '98 - '02 that already has a V8 ...?

I've got alot invested in my car (entire new suspension, new rear), which is why I'd rather keep it and work from there.

any comments appreciated

I stil have K-member, rack w/tie rods, LCAs, manifolds, cats & y-pipe.


Might still have d/s, pedals, trans x-member, torque arm mount & exhaust hanger on trans.
