Take the time to get everything right, it's a good idea to clean all plugs and terminals to prevent any future issues and you shouldn't have any problems

Get a VX - VY2 LS1 for the swap as vz ls1s are drive by wire so the throttle body is different and would need to be replaced.

replace all the welch plugs and rear main seal while the motor is out, and if you want extractors, fit them with the motor
