T56 into a TH350 truck

I've got money and I've got plans again. When the CST10 left DD duty, it was replaced by manual cars over the summer. Now that I have the oppertunity to get an OD trans into it, the options have opened up.

Just need to clarify a few things about the T56 swap:

What do I need to mate it to the oldschool SBC? I believe the LT1 and old SBC have the same bolt pattern, but one of the threads I was reading the guy had to put on an adapter kit.. Clutch, flywheel, will the LT1 T56 stuff bolt onto my block?

Clutch pedal assembly? The trans I found comes with shifter, master and slave cylinder and pedal assembly. Are there provisions in the auto cab for a clutch, or will I have to custom mount it? Or would it be best to use a stock clutch pedal and convert it for the hydrolic system?

Will I get away with using a low-hump floor? Seems one guy did, but he had an LS motor.

I read that I can use the TH350 x-member, yes? Just moved back?
