Default LT1 to LS1 swap

Have been planning to do an LT1 to LS1 swap.
My current LT1 is a 95 camaro w/4l60e transmission.
i have been looking into doing a 2000 LS1 wT56 swap to go into the LT1.
so LT1 to LS1.
Any ideas what is needed to do a A4 to T56 swap?

The LS1 engine i plan on getting will include everything i need.
Complete LS1 engine with accessories, wire harness and PCM and T56.

I know that i will need to swap into the middle console.

Any ideas what else is needed when it comes to the 4l60e to T56?

i had been planning just to go with an auto LS1 swap, but im more leaning towards the T56 swap. like what the difference would be involved in the swap. wire harness etc.
