Default Transmission's been sitting on garage floor for 1 yr. Will there be problems?

I have a cable transmission taken out of my 90 LS w/ roughly 75-80k on it. It's wrapped completely in heavy duty plastic. It's been sitting on the floor of my garage for about a year now. Will there be any problems if I were to reattach it to another b18? (Will do flush/clean/usual maintenance.) My only concern is that it's been sitting idle for quite some time.

when you put it back on, make sure change the fluid and go into all the gears, their going to be hard, if their stuck warm up the car that should help out.
