Tailhousing and VSS.

The governor may have low shift points and the valvebody may not give the firmest shifts in the world..

It needs to be from a V8 car for bellhousing pattern.

The speedo drive gear (on the output shaft) can be changed to the one from the '91 trans easily (if it's different; they're either 15 or 17 tooth) and you'd use the VSS from the '91. That's it.
