Ok, I've got a line on a T45 from a '96 with low milage and a new king cobra clutch. I just need anyone's insights who has done this swap before. I need to know parts I'm missing from my list (below) and/or parts I've listed that aren't necessary. The person doing the swap for me has worked at a trans specialty shop for a long time now, but has never done this swap, so I wanna make it easy on him. Please chime in with any suggestions!
Parts I think I need for sure
1) Yoke from T45's drive shaft (but don't need the whole driveshaft)
2) T45 trans
3) Clutch and cables
4) Pedals
5) Shifter
6) Flywheel
7) Block plate

Parts I've been told I need by some, and told I don't need by others:
1) Trans mount
2) ECM
3) Cross member
4) Wiring harness
5) Bell housing (I thought this was part of the T45....but someone suggested it on another board)

So, if you see something that shouldn't be there, or see something that doesn't belong where it is, please let me know. And if you can clarify on the parts that have been disputed, please do. Again, it's a 96 T45 going into a 97 with AODE.
