new goodie

i got this new tranny yesterday in to put it in my truck behind a 454. the only problem i got is that i don't know what clutch to use or what pilot bushing. its a t56 of a 95 maro. i know that "shifty" is doing a similar swap but with a 5.3 in front of it. but its similar to the ls1 so there is parts available. but in this case i don't know what clutch assembly to use. i know i have to use the 454 flywheel because since is a gen 5 its externally balanced, but since the tranny is a 26 spline input shaft i have to use either the maro clutch disk or something else. Now i did some research and found out that the maro clutch disk is 11 7/8" in diameter, but a regular clutch set for the flywheel that my 454 requires has a 11 inch clutch disk. now my question is....

would it affect it if i use the 11 7/8" clutch disk in the 454 flywheel?
or clutch disk and pressure plate should i use?


here are some pics.

i know that the bellhousing is broken, but i got another one coming in the mail =D




here is the engine is going in

Or,you could read all the suggestions and try those.It`s been well explained,I think,already.
