not a hundred percet positive but I think that the cars have different computers. If anything that's your biggest worry big whoop. If you can get a deal on the ls2 go for it people put lq-9 blocks out of trucks in there camaros, you'll do fine put your headers on the motor before you install so you don't have to do it later. I'm sure someone else will kick in.

The swap will be a bolt in mechanically. As C5Z28 said, the two engines use different PCMs and the LS2 will not run with a LS1 PCM. Basically you will have to graft the two harnesses together. Not real hard but definately not a job for a beginner.
The GTO trans will not work because there is no provision for the torque arm mount.
