adapter for the flexplate if you dont have a converter with a long hub
possibly flywheel bolts
converter bolts.
youre gonna have to rig up the linkage and find a vacuum source unless its a full manual.
shifter? you can use the stock one if you need to get by. set it up in N and 2nd gear on the shifter will actually be 1st. PRND will all work the same.
im sure there is more lil stuff.
plan for setbacks, but it should go decently smooth.
good luck.
