Default TH400 for my LT1

Looking to put a TH400 on my LT1 T/A. I don't know **** about autos but do I have to look for any specific TH400 that will fit, or will any do. Also Any markings on casing to tell it a TH400?

What stall is recommended to start off with on a turbo car. Looking to get a (numerically) low gear 3.05


Thanks in Advance

In other words will any TH400 work for my car?

Yes, just need the right flexplate and converter. Also need an adapted M6 crossmember or BMR/UMI crossmember. Might have to lengthen or shorten the driveshaft also. Custom B&M or Hurst shifter and trans cooler. Although the 4L80e wouldnt hurt to have overdrive...
