I have a 95 caprice with a 4.3L and I wanted to know how difficult it would be to drop in a 5.7L LT1

Well from what I have researched the impala ss has the same 4l60e transmission. So I have been told I can use the same transmission. I just didnt know if it would drop right in since the are the same body style. What is the PCM?
