Default LS7 Crank Fitment

Will an LS7 crank fit in an iron 6.0 LS block? The crank I'm interested in comes out of a Z06. If so, will there be alot of stuff to do to make it fit, such as clearancing, etc?

Default LS-7 = Light Rods

I have installed the LS-7 crankshaft into LS2/3 blocks.

I used the LS-7 oil pan, oil pump, and front cover.
(dry sump)
The LS-7 crankshaft is balanced for the Ti Rods (very light) AND needed $600.00 of Mallory
to balance with the steel rods that I fitted.

A more cost effective 4.0" '4340' crankshaft ($550.00) can be found that will balance with steel rods.
