Q8stang: Really you will need a glide with a JW bellhousing for a SBF, JW "the wheel" Flexplate, you can use stock cross member, but will need a 1 inch spacer, crank adapter so you can run a GM style converter, Shifter with a neutral saftey switch built in (Hurst QUarter Stick)...to name most...
Personally unless you have a different vehicle not listed in your sig a glide is prolly not for you...

A Proline 5500 Powerglide can handle 3000 hp, In a light car making big power it's gets you into 1-1 ratio much quicker without needless shifts. It allows you to pretty much skip low gear and use the converter like a rubber band.

you can buy a Hurst shifter or whatever shifter you like and buy you transmission and converter from whomever you choose...
Almost forgot, you will then need a driveshaft as well.. How much power you trying to make??
