My build thread is located at:

It is picture heavy.
I had a few questions about parts and whatnot. Starting from the back to the front. I rebuilt my C4 transmission and swapped in a C5 output shaft and tail housing.
---
1)Will I need a gasket to fit the tail housing to the transfer case?
2)Is there anything else I need to do between the tail house and t/c before I hook everything up?
3)Will I need a plate to fit between the motor and the bellhousing? If so, where do I get one of those?
4)I'm assuming I'm going to have to build a few shifter brackets to get the cabling to work with my stock floor shifter, input here is welcome as well.
---
I am currently building my motor. So far I have been able to find everything I need, with caveats.
1) I need stock HO roller cam pushrods. Anyone know where to find these in stock length for cheap?
2) When purchasing a computer, do I need to get one for a manual, since I have a C4?
3) I plan on using my v6 alternator and power steering pump, with A/C deleted. I am seeking to use a shorter water pump if possible and want my fan to be electrical, is this a Vbelt setup or a serpentine? It seems that there are limitless setups for the front end of the motor.
Any other input is welcome so far. I have been crunching at the reading for hours and so far I'm trying to get "The right facts" to do this thing right, the first time.
Thanks for the help!!!
