94 Lt1 swapping a G35?

Answer what you can. Has anyone done it? Everything would come from the donor crashed 94 corvette. Which mounts are needed for it, transmission and motor? Is it smarter to do a full rear swap or just get a custom made u joint for the driveshaft? Do fuel lines, oil filters, oil pans or pedals need adjusting? I have an aftermarket subframe but same OEM holes for the G, would that affect motor mounts? Should I just go with custom made ones? Whats needed electrical wise if all I need interior lights and probably the corvettes gauges in it?
Info on both cars:
Auto 2003 G35 is completely gutted to the metal besides suspension and upper dash and speakers so far.

Auto 1994 Corvette with wrecked fenders, no k member in the front but has everything for a swap.

There also is sikky and maybe a few others.

It is a lot of work for a 3000+ curb weight imo.

You are better off joining some of the swap forums for more specific info. The LT1 and 4L60 shouldn't be that different..

Planning on buying the corvette next month if it doesn’t sell. Seen that LOJ makes a j30 ltx and 4l60e kit but they emailed me back saying they wont think its worth it due to the G35 CANBUS system being different but i dont care for road legality. And i can pick up a sauter pen if i need to connect certain electronics
