Hello folks. I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I just picked up an NV4500 to swap into my K20. The transmission is from an LS based truck and includes the bellhousing. What's involved in mating this to my engine? I have a Vortec 350, SM465, and a factory hydraulic clutch setup with an aftermarket external slave cylinder. Can I use the LS bellhousing? What other parts do I need (clutch release bearing, slave cylinder, clutch, etc)?
