In 2001, GM - for the first time since 1955 - changed the crank depth and its pilot bore diameter of the Gen. III. Pilot bushings differ for these motors and transmissions built from this time forward had a deeper bellhousing and different torque converter.

Do it. I have a FSM with wiring colors and a list of wires you need to keep. I can help with wiring if you need.

probably not, but i have to get headers and a TC adaptor before i can get it mounted for good.  just wanted to hang it in and see if i had any major issues.

need to get a starter motor also.

Wiring it is not hard, I can have her running in an evening. You need the computer flashed before you get it going, or its gonna run in limp mode or something. Lots of things can be turned off and should be turned off. Trans controls, rear O2 sensors, Torque management, and other annoyances should be done away with.
