You will need a different trans because the corvette has a transaxle in the rear,But you will need a few things like http://www.brphotrods.com/mm5/mercha...ory_Code=CNV10 and if you want ac a few companies like http://www.kwikperf.com/lsx_ac.html to keep it drive by wire takes a little more work like http://www.lokar.com/product-pgs/new...e-by-wire.html or use a oem gas pedal.

It would make for a great motor in your truck. Just throw a 4l80e behind it and terrorize some local ricers!!

The conversion to the LS7 would be great. It is a bit of work and not one that coild be done in a weekend if it is daily driver. Check the LSx section in the Engine part of this forum. There is a ton of good info in there. Keep us posted!
