I think the only hard part about putting the automatic is getting all of the electronic stuff to work. As far and it going in it is not that hard. For a 56 you would need a flywheel, clutch and slave. Your master clutch, your crossmember should work (pretty sure that it does), shorten the drive shaft and I think that is it. Oh and a 56 of a 98 LS1
I think if you run an auto you should get a very good built one. I would do a 56 since you are already manual.
