The stock LS PS bracket + pump and the AC bracket + condensor will fit the GSR motor or the GSR stuff can also be used.

You will need to wire both the cabin harness and engine harness (if using stock LS engine harness) for the VTEC solenoid, pressure switch, knock sensor and IAB.

It's best to have a Helm's book(s) so you can map out the needed wiring and existing wiring. A lot of times a wire in the current position which becomes another function with the new ECU can usually be used to make the connection for that new sensor.
I really urge that you follow a Helm's manual to do this procedure. Most people make the sensor a direct connection to the ECU and bypass the engine and cabin harness all together. While this is OK and serves it's purpose, it;s also not factory-like and tends to get very messy.
