For the question on hooking up the LS1 emergency brakes, I did it by making a couple of simple brackets. Pictures and drawings attached below. The clip to use the G-gody brake cables was made from a 3/4" slice off the end of a 1x2 angle iron. The brackets to hold the cable are made from a piece of 1 " bar stock. I had the LS1 cables, but it looked like it was going to be a harder modification to get them to work. Backing plates were swapped side to side so the pull on the emergency brake bracket is toward the front of the vehicle. Stock G-body cables slid into the L-shaped bracket, and then the bracket is slid over the end of the E-brake bracket in the brake caliper.

Here is a good catalog with pictures from Inline Tube. You'll have to wade through the options to match your needed tee. Most auto parts stores should have a parts box under the counter that may have the tee you are looking for.
