@mrvedit this needs to be moved to the conversions and swaps section of the forum.
The only real relevant portion is the driveshaft, and for that, you need a 27 spline yoke for the 4l60e, then match u joint to the yoke, and match u joint to the stock 8.8 rear flange, and have a driveshaft shop connect the dots.

@Pojo11 hopefully you will get the answers to your questions here in this section. I haven't done any swaps, so I am not able to help with that but, MaroonMonsterLS1 did answer you drive shaft question.
