Default Gen III 5.3 into my 80 Camaro

I purchased a new 02 Gen III 5.3 Truck motor. I would like to put it in my 1980 Camaro pictured below



This is the new motor



So I was politely informed about carb / injection in the post "Penny's new little sister".

So I have just purchased an LS1 intake manifold, Injectors, Fuel rails and Throttle body for a whopping $127 and it is local pickup here in MI.

OK guys I'm going to need a list of other components I will need. I know I'll need a harness, ECU and gaskets. What else will I need? How do I get the ECU reprogrammed? I have no problems modding the harness myself. What do I need to do for fuel delivery?

Let’s see if I can put all this together for less than $1,000

I still want to put the GM Hot cam kit in and have the heads ported. I hope to do everything for $2,000 or less. I also will need headers and accessories to fit in my Camaro. Will the truck accessory brackets work in a second Gen? Will the oil pan work with my stock subframe?

Thanks for any and all the help!
