The short block (just the engine itself) will work just fine. Some of the accessories would take extra work.

Why would you want the JDM engine? Just get the efini turbos. That was pretty much the only difference right? or am i wrong?

Well you dont have to get a JDM long block. You can try and find sombody on here who is doing an LS1 conversion. There are other alternatives. Get together your money and sit in the classified section. Make sure its a reputable seller either way you go.

you're wrong: 'efini' turbos are identical to USDM.

if the wires that run along the driver side of the engine bay burnt you dint want a jdm harness, some of the connectors are different, i was in the same boat as you a while ago.
