Question Six Speed Conversion ?

I will be perfoming a six speed conversion on my 95 Z vert this
weekend. Have found a low mile 97 T-56 with all the parts for
the conversion. Here are the parts I am getting, and will these
parts cover everything I need?

---Tranny - fly wheeel,bell housing, pressure plate and clutch
---Crossover support, peddles, driveshaft,hydraulics, shifter with
boot, and 95 computer (programed for a t-56) and wiring harness.

Is the torque arm the same size for both auto's and t-56's?

I know many of you out there have perfomed this conversion,
can I get some input on any problems encountered and or
any guides or notes anyone has compiled.

Thanks in advance.

You'll also need a new key cylinder for your steering wheel column, but I think you can get away with not having one. PM me and I can send you the conversion guide that he made... it's pretty good.
