After some time collecting parts and a few good day of work i have completed my swap, starting off with a stock 04 3400 engine i stripped it to a shortblock and bolted on a set of 3500 head's that i polished and lightly ported, along with all of the intakes that were port matched. i was able to use an aeromotive lt1 fpr work along with making my own adapter flange for the 70mm s10 tb, haven't driven it yet due to needing a shorter length serpentine belt, here are a few pic's

Well, I have the 2.0, so my bar bends alittle differently, but it fit like a glove. Might be because I painted it silver though.

Do the trans swap first... then the cam and headers. You'll be happier

good stuff man, I'm curious to see how the trans holds up while you leave it mated to that beast.
