I have done many, many f-body conversions going back to the early eighties. It can be an involved process, but there are many good components in the aftermarket world that will help you get it done right the first time.
You'll want to start with a good flexplate from TCI, a new torque converter is required, a new dipstick, a new crossmember, a driveshaft, a new shifter and related console modifications... there are actually quite a few things that need to be replaced in order for it to go smoothly.
Hope that helps.

Why don't you give me a call, I bet I can help you figure out what a good plan would be. There are some options you might not have considered. I don't mind discussing your situation in detail.
