Manual to Automatic??

I have searched and searched found no real help on this swap.
There are a million threads about Autos to Manuals but not the other way around.
I am trading someone my manual for an Auto.
What is every single component I need to complete this swap?
I know a good just of it, but this should be well explained for the next person who needs to know this since there is no thread I could find on this particular topic?
THANKS!

I changed my 85 z from m to a. It originally came with an auto. If you are going to a 700r4 with no computer than it is not very hard.

tranny
converter
cooling lines
radiator for an auto. i would not use a rad. if the trans. fitting have been open for a while.
tv cable with brackets.Bowtie Overdrives | TV Made EZ
tranny cooler.
shifter. i used a b&m megashifter
lockup wiring kit if you are not using a computer.
flexplate
misc. hardware

i got everything from here...


Bowtie Overdrives
