Pontiac 400 swap parts for 86 T-5 TA

Hello I have a few questions about where to get swap parts for a 72 Lemans 400. I want to fit the engine in a manual transmissioned 1986 Trans am. I know of the headers and motor mounts, however, I'm not sure of the drivetrain parts.

What flywheel, bellhousing, clutch and miscellaneous parts is to be used and where do they sell them. And does the tranny have to be remounted? Does someone sell an entire retrofit kit?

Please do not tell me to search or tell me it's too hard because I've been there done that. Thanks in advance, Ed.
