LT1 swap into a 92 C1500 w/5.7/5spd

I plan on towing my Monte SS with my truck and would like to swap in either a LT1 (which I have) or going to a 383. I want to keep the 5spd since its more fun to drive. The power in my 96 Caprice makes my truck feel like a slug.

I plan on attending some shows over the summer and will try to get some ideas from other how they did the swap. I know a fuel pump upgrade to a high pressure one is needed, just have to figure wiring. If anyone has done the swap, please email me or post here. I already have the engine and wiring, just need a starting point!
