Hi Carlos, welcome aboard. Nice score bud she's a beauty!
The only LS1 conversion so far is a chap over east Oz who has put one in a SWB and converted it to an overlander (can't remember name /sorry) he should be close to finished now, (although we all know Finished- never exists) in Beddie'ville

It needs to be done and shouldn't be  any harder than any V8  engine conversion.... IF your savvy enough..
Can I go play now...?

Carlos, your van looks familiar. Are you based in NZ ?
