Default Christmas wish list for A-body LS1/T56 swap

I'm getting ready to start an LS1/T56 swap into a '71 Chevelle using everything I can from a '99 Trans Am donor. I've been following Stealth71 and Bczee's buildups gathering tons of useful info. Any suggestions for little stuff that should be on my Christmas wish list?
