85 Firebird V6 to V8 Conversion w T5 transmission What parts will I need to convert my t5 hooked up to a 2.8 v6 to a 350 SBC? Are there any parts I can reuse?

The ratios are not going to be the best for your V8. Also the torque rating for the V6 unit is approx. 260lb-ft. You will prolly tear up the trans with the V8. Unless it is just a temp install, I would look for the correct T5.
