You will need to bias the transistors, add a cap to the relay and a switch, that is just to start, I'm pretty sure there is more, I'll let the amp guys tell you what else.

Biasing is a bit more complicated. I don't do the resistor and diode mod as it's not a good way of doing it. The delay is easy.
