Well, to me, the biggest issue with fitting an LS engine is making the transmission fit since you have to cut the floor. Everything else needed can be made to fit the car rather easily. So what you could consider doing now if it would be a huge chore later is to cut the floor for the T56 and just run the T10 until you swap the drive train. Just a thought. Don't over think it too much. Be honest with your goals and desires for the car and realize that while nice, the LS motors aren't the be all end all for performance. It's not like you're running a flat head V8 now. Good luck!
