Default 4L60e-truck vs camaro

if i was to take the 4l60e from my truck and toss it into a camaro, what all would i need to change?

Bell housing?
Tail housing?
shifter linkage?

i figured all of this was the same but i just wanted to make sure.

Dont even need to change the tail housing to go from car to truck. Stick it in and go.

. I just did the swap yesterday and you don't have to swap the tailhousing if you don't want to, the mount from the truck will bolt right on to the camaro one, I am having a weird problem though. I put shift lever and bracket from my truck onto the new transmission and now the cable is too long or the bracket is too close to the shift lever, maybe about a 1/2" any suggestions?
