I installed the direct fit VA system on my 65 C10 which has the LQ4 6.0 in it. The system comes with everything you need for a clean installation. I would suggest that you just go with their full system because if you try to purchase components only, I suspect the price difference wouldn't make up for the headache you will soon have after trying to integrate. If I am reading your message correctly, you are asking if your existing brackets will work on your LS? My immediate response would be no, but you could certainly try a test fit.
Refer to my initial statement though on that topic. You will be miles ahead if you just bite the bullet and get the complete package for your application. I purchased mine from Summit and the price was better than from VA direct.
Going to have mine charged today as a matter of fact.
