LT1 T56 Transmission to LA 360 swap

I came across a LT1 T56 Transmission from a 96 firebird and it seems like the conversion is more than it's worth. He's asking 800 for it including clutch hydraulic assembly.
I read the input shaft is only 7.25" long and there isn't any bellhousing adaptors. Could the front mid plate and input shaft be swapped? Or is there more necessary to be done?
