The Corvette, GTO or F-Body are going to be the easiest to fit accessories.
A/C
The frame will have to be notched for the low mount A/C or use a top mount quick kit from Kwikperf.com
Intake
The car intake will be required unless you run a decent size cowl hood
The car intakes can be ran on the truck accessories with the KwikPerf.com kit that relocates the idler pulley bracket.
Tranny
I would recommend the 4L60 or T-56 for an install without having to widen the tunnel
*you will need the tail shaft from a 98-02 Camaro/Firebird to hook up the Torque Arm.
Fuel Tanks
Use an EFI tank from a TPI F-Body then upgrade the fuel pump and use a corvette fuel filter reg from a 1999 Corvette.
The 98-02 Camaro tanks have also been used on these cars
Tanks are available at local parts stores, or check rockauto.com for a good price shipped to your door.
Harness
Ether pick up a modded harness from ebay with no core charge, or send the one from the donor car to the listed companies for rewiring.

Another great trick is to use the 98-02 F-Body rear end for extra clearance for extra width for the back tires and rear disc brakes.
