Hmmm, seeing how you have a 6.0 the factory flexplate should be okay to bolt up the transmission with a sbc style converter. The Lsx engines need a spacer on the crank to work with an older style transmission. Jegs sells the spacer and the bolts for around $75 total but you may not need it depending on which flex plate you have.

Here's a really helpful thread. There's a link posted from me about 5-6 posts down to a LS1tech.com thread that has 100% everything you need to know.

usually if the truck was a HD or had the 4l80 trand it will have the spacer....if you get a large bolt converter the holes are already on the flexplate, if not you have to grind a little for the smaller th350 circle
