Depends upon what options the Camaro was born with.
If a true SS, BBC/SBC with automatic, then already there.
If base model, she came equipped with PG/3-spd/4-spd, then the trans crossmember will have to be changed for a THM400 unit and a shorter driveshaft.
Also, kickdown switch on carb throttle linkage.
Detent plate of shifter will have to be modified for access to 1st gear manually.
Longer trans oil cooler lines.

Here's the RPO M40 from the 1967 AIM:
Gives an idea of parts needed.

RS Pkg is an appearance option, could be gotten with a L6/3-spd manual.
