Default check list for LS1 into 1988 S10?

So guys, what all parts do I need? Obviously a motor, tranny, exhaust manafolds, but what else?

Thanks,

i currently have a 89 s10 2 wheel drive and believe it or not the swap is not that bad, i do not have a ls1 just a carbed 307 but it went in with out a hitch, not sure about hte lt1 oil filter location you may have to relocate it thats about it, go here and do some reserch, im warning you though if you do this swap, do the suspension and rear end at teh same time or you will be down as soon as you get up, heres the link http://www.v8s10.com

Thanks for the info and the link. I already have that book but they offer nothing about the LS1 swap. If I could find a wrecked carbed vehicle(SBC/th350) I'd probably go that route. Finding decent parts seems to be a PITA these days.
