I used the following from a totaled 2018 Tahoe with 3 miles on it. Found it on EBay all the parts are like new.

Engine 5.3 L L 83
Transmission 6 speed
Engine harness
ECM
Radiator
Stock fans
Complete induction
Complete under hood fuse block and harnesses
Fuel pump and controller
Stock exhaust manifolds and Cats

For the accy drive I used a Holly Mid Mount set up. This fits great and gave me a power steering pump

Dakota Digital Gauges that work of the GM CAN data

Dorman 31 gallon fuel tank

Custom exhaust CAT back

Detroit Real Steel wheels

Michelin Tire

Ride Tech suspension parts.
Rear springs did not work I used the stock ones with Ride Tech hangers.

I made engine mount and moved the stock cross member.

We used HP tuners to turn off stuff in the EVM to make it work stand alone.

That pretty much it.

Runs and drives great.
