If it bolts up are there any issues I need to be aware of,such as speed sensor problems or anything??

I have a lq4 6.0 in my 52 and researched this topic. I went with a T56 six speed so it bolted up to the LS engine. Quicktime makes a bell-housing to use a early four speed or turbo style transmission. Others vendors offer or make the same bell-housing. Check out the transmission section over at
