1st Question, why are you running the GQ auto ?
Best off with
5L V8 304
Commodore T700 auto with over drive
Marks adaptor to mount T700 to GQ transfer.
Then you need,
Fuel Pump
Surge Tank
Lift Pump
Fuel Lines
Exhaust
Bracketry ( to run power steer, air con. alternator etc )
Engine Mounts ( not sure if you need gearbox mounts )
Radiator & hoses
3L TD Air box from a GU ZD30
I personally dont like the idea of the GQ auto.
The T700 works well so why change it ?

the gaerbox problem i am having is i need to know what sensors i need to keep to make the gearbox shift, whether it be throttle position sensor or what?

in saying that it will still work with out it but as i understand the standard GQ auto won't be up to the task
it might be ok if you adapt the tps to the 5.0L i think the tps controls the oil pressure as well as when it changes but i ran my auto with out it and blew the auto up with in 500kms its been great since i fitted a extreme valve body with other mods
