v-6 to v-8 drivetrain swap???

Im am in the process of putting a 350 L98V-8 in my firebird witch currently has a 2.8..

I am going with a Turbo 350 tranny.

I need to know if i need a new tranny crossmember brace and a new driveshaft??
Also I have motor mounts for a 350 out of an IROC camaro will they work??

any info is greatly appreciated...

If you had a 5 speed or an 4 speed auto then you will need a longer drive shaft, and a different crossmember.
