Got my TH350.. Now what

Ok well I ended up getting a TH350 from my buddy today. Its brand new 0 miles and built with all kinds of B&M stuff, Shift kit etc. I am going to most likely send it in and get it built a lil more extreme with a trans brake and stuff. Well now my question is what else do I need to get. What flywheel is the best to go with for a 750-800hp motor (N20), Will my orginal starter I have now still work with this tranny, its a jegs mini torque starter with universial pattern.. I know I need a different driveshaft now, and obvisiously its gonna be shorter right? Anyone know what length I need, or what brand would be best for my setup? Also do they make any aftermarket crossmembers that will bolt up to my car (93 Bird) and the th350? And what do I do about mounting the torque arm now?

To do a 350 swap correctly, we use a Fitz-All conversion kit. This makes it possible to use a stock A4 crossmember, driveshaft, mount locations, and torque arm. The kit uses it's own output shaft, but retains the 700/4L60E style tail housing.
The transmission does have to be disassembled to install the kit.
Call me if you'd like details...302-250-1202

They only think Id need out of that kit would be the tailshaft mod to keep the stock drive shaft length because BMR makes a tranny cross member for my car to convert to the th350 and also relocates the torque arm mount to the cross member. Heres a link.. Ill give you a call today though because I am wanting you to do some work for me.

This kit also allows you to use the 4L60E style electronic speedometer.

I don't sell the kits/parts directly. The last time I checked, I could only buy everything as a kit. BTW, the kit DOESN'T include the 700/4L60E tailhousing. It only includes the parts you WILL need.

Please forgive me...It's been a LONG time since I had to check into this conversion stuff...LOL.
