Question A4 to M6 conversion: 2000 T/A ...???

So I'm converting my 2000 T/A 4L60e over to a Stage 2 T56. I just wanted to throw out what I've ordered and see if I've forgotten anything.

1.) Stage 2 T56 from a performance shop. I believe the slave & pilot bearing are included. (NEW)
2.) T-56 bellhousing (used)
3.) Monster Stage 2 Clutch & 18lb flywheel. (NEW)
4.) Tick Master Cylinder (used)
5.) Manual Pedal Assembly (used)
6.) 98-02 manual crossmember (used)
7.) trans poly mount (used)
8.) shifter insulator (used)
9.) manual center console w/ boot. (used)
10.) Hurst shifter w/ stick (used)
11.) Torque arm mount w/ poly bushing & bolts.
12.) 6 Trans to bellhousing bolts.. (I think I need 2 more) (NEW)
13.) reverse lockout solenoid

Need:
-I still need to buy a clutch reservoir if the Tick doesn't come with one.
-Shifter ball
-fluids.
-PCM reflash (Already got a friend to do it for me when the time comes)
-harness rewiring (on day of)


Have I forgotten anything?

I also have a stage 2 t56 that I bought from Texas drivetrain performance and am also doing the swap in my 2000 trans am as well. Lol

Your list looks correct to me because my list says the exact same thing. Lol

My only difference is I'm going with a stage 3 monster and I'm putting a s60 with 4.10s behind it.

My buddy just told me to make sure that I have new bolts to mate the flywheel to the crank, slave to trans, trans mount to trans & RTV sealant to seal the shifter to the tailhousing.

Oh, ... and connectors for the reverse lockout & reverse lights.
