You shouldn't be piecing together a nitrous kit and be needing a "list of fittings" etc.
I would go with a kit that is designed for the LT1. Nitrous is not something you want to play around with and pieceing a kit together from random parts isn't always the best.
That being said, as long as all the components are in good working order you will need at a minimum:
Bottle
Bottle Brackets
Fuel Solenoid
Nitrous Solenoid
Line from Fuel Rail to Fuel solenoid
Line from bottle to Nitrous solenoid
Line from Nitrous solenoid to nozzle
Nozzle
Jets
WOT Activation switch
Some wire
Those are the bare bones components of a nitrous kit.
To do it correctly / safely you should also add
Nitrous filter
Purge
Fuel pressure gauge
Nitrous pressure gauge
bottle heater
blowdown tube
A way to pull timing (either in the tune or external device, ignition box, etc)
Upgraded Fuel Pump (walbro 255 is the popular choice)

window switch also something nice to have expecially with the six speed. you can turn the nitrous off at say 6300 rpms and shift at 6500rpms. that way the nitrous wont activate through the gear jamming. msd makes a nice digital one.
