When I built the LS1 for my 69 Camaro I wanted to keep it as simple as possible in terms of matching components - proven to work.
I called SLP and spent some time looking through packages. I ended up buying the SLP Stage III kit that included modified LS6 heads, 36# injectors, SLP Stage III cam, matching push rods, gaskets/hardware, high performance oil pump, and other misc. stuff. I already had a LS6 intake and headers for the project.
I had to modify the oil pan from the F body and I used BRP mounts.
All of this mated to a TCI 2,800 stall on a 4L60E was a nice match. Car has plenty of rump to the idle, and able to run 12.5 in the 1/4 without breaking a sweat (running on 18" Goodyear runflats out back and 2+ 60' times).
I have since noticed other LS performance shops with "package" deals. I hate to venture out on my own mixing and matching parts - so this seems to work well for me.
I used a painless harness and a 98 F body PCM programmed by wait 4 me performance. I also used a fuel tank from a 1996 Caprice with minor mods and dropped a Walbro 255 pump straight in the tank like factory. I used the Caprice fuel lines and mated them up to 97/98 Corvette fuel rail. All in all, this kept the fuel system on the low budget with high reliability.
