I'm not sure there are "conversion" kits sold.
  • Complete Engine
  • Transmission (different bolt pattern)
  • Radiator
  • Fuel Pump
  • Engine Harness
  • Throttle Cables and System
  • New Susp. for added weight
  • Steering rack
View more detailed and specific part listings here:
3.4/3.8 V6 to LS1

You'll already have the engine and transmission. Possibly more, depending on how bad the wreck was.

If you're going to indeed do this, make sure the ECM you get is for a 98+ car.

And you'll have to have everything Rocket and Jester mentioned.

Well if he has the Wrecked car in it's entirety that shouldn't be an issue Phate, but yea that's gonna be a piece of work to do.
