New with an 85

Hey new to the site and recently picked up a 85 camaro with a 305 wanting to do a ls1 t-56 swap and starting to collect parts. Ive read alot of the other threads that tell me most of what i need but i just want to make sure ive got all the parts i can before i get started. so could someone thats done the swap list all the major parts im gonna need. And since it has an auto in it right now could someone give me some details on what its going to take to convert it to a standard. Any help will be great thanks
