Are both 3.8L & LS4 using the same bellhousing pattern? Because apparently the 6T70/5 should bolt up; I've been on the net a little more, and there are folks doing LS2/4 & 6T75 adaptations, as well as F40! One bloke put that combo in his Fiero! But I'm reading that as long as the Metric bolt pattern's there, it should work... though the starter for 5.3L might need an adapter...
