I did a TH350 swap. You will also need a driveshaft and have the computer tuned to eliminate the computer reverting to the stock limiter when no vehicle speed sensor is detected. I am not sure on the stock shifter. I installed a hurst shifter in mine. Try the advanced search for "TH400 install" under this section.

The hardest part of the swap was getting the Madman dipstick to fit. They sent out a set that wasn't bent correctly for the LS F-body. Since then they have corrected the issue. I wired the speed sensor into the left front ABS sensor. I had to program the computer. The only downfall is that you will lose your ABS. I think PATC sells the correct adapter for the TH400/350.
