manual to auto

i am going to put my new bow tie overdrive 700 in this weekend and i have a couple of questions. my car was originally a auto then changed to t-5 before i got it.

1. will the 26 spline driveshaft work?

2. will the crossmember work and just get a stock mount? it is the one piece member with 3 big holes and1 small in the middle. anyone have a pic of the one i need?

3. any ideas for the hole that was cut for the manual shifter? im installing a b&m megashifter.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. i have never done anything with an auto transmission and i might have gotten in over my head. anyone see any potential problems?
