If you do a quick Google search for "LS swap gmt 400" you will get a ton of results, mostly from here.
Obviously the motor, as complete as you can get it. Meaning the belt drive system, computer, throttle pedal (if a DBW), wiring harness etc. The best is if you have the donor vehicle parked next to your truck as possible. Depending on the year of your truck, may need to upgrade the fuel pump.
Are you swapping the transmission too?
I have done mine yet, but have read a ton online, watched videos on YouTube. The info is out there, tons of these swaps have been done.
