Default 70 camaro ls swap questions.

So I am getting ready to swap the TPI engine out of my 70 and put an ls1 in it. I picked up a 99 camaro for the donor engine but it was an A4 so I sold the trans and am looking for a t56. I am trying to get everything I need for the swap so the car wont be down too long and stay on a budget. I was wondering if the stock oil pan from the f body will fit or if I have to notch it for the crossmember. Also will the t56 fit in the stock trans tunnel or will I have to clearance it. For the sake of saving some money I was thinking about taking the hooker headers I have now and switching the flanges so they will work on the LS. Has anyone had success with this idea? My last concern is the pedal set up/clutch master, it is an auto right now so what pedals and master are the best to use?

Stock f body pan worked great for me with no mods
