Looking for detailed LQ4/LQ9 swap for Impala SS/Fleetwood/Roadmaster

There is a long large following of the 94-96 B/D cars with the LT1.  

With all the fun of the LS V8's from GM, I would like to see a detailed article from GMHTP that covers swapping in a LQ4/LQ9 or even a LM7 into these heavy RWD hot rods.

These engines are showing up for fairly low cost at car-part.com and make great swap candidates, but I would like to know what it would take to install.  What manifolds work?  What motor mounts?  What mods to transmission?   How about hooking up the LS PCM to the 94-96 body?

Thanks!!
