Default SR20 swap write up

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to request this, but could anybody do a write up on swapping an SR20 5 speed into a 1993 LS400?
I picked up every part I need for 500$ (I got sooooo lucky), so now it's just where to bolt it up and a few questions on loose ends.

yes but to be honest, i feel that an sr20 would be a downgrade. so most guys here go turbo JZ. and even on zilvia i feel like they would rather have GTE than sr20. let me ask you this, is it a money thing? if you could/can afford it, would you rather go turbo jz?
