too much. lol
seriously tho, it depends on what you can find to start with. honestly, id look around for a 5.3 LS motor with trans, computer and wiring to make things as simple as possible.
for the carb setup, you need a carb, intake manifold, and custom wiring for everything, plus a non computer controlled trans as well. the carb setup is pretty straightforward, the intake manifold is swapped, computer goes bye-bye, and you rig up your own starter and wiring/fuel system.
for an LS based swap, you will need a new k-member as well as the LT1 and LS1 style k-members are different
ive seen LS based motors with trans and wiring go for $1500.00 in various sites. we dont do a whole lot of selling on here, but you can check out Z28.com, CamaroZ28.com, LS1tech.com, LS1LT1.com to find a full setup to make things easier to swap.
