John,
Here is a link to someone that actually sells "off the shelf" all of the conversion parts needed for an LS swap. He also offers the suspension upgrade parts while you have the car apart. I have telephoned Andrew a few times with questions about a potential XJS conversion.

With that engine make sure you get the TKO 600 with the high 1st and high 5th gear as the ZZ is very torque at all rpm's so you will NOT need the low rear gears
