Just make sure you connect the SSD to an SATA III port provided by the Intel chipset and not sth like Marvel…
You can clone your installation to the SSD, maybe you need to reinstall the "drivers" with Multibeast.
Install TRIM support from Multibeast.
Cloning a HDD to a SSD is not a good idea - the system doesn't know it needs trim. A clean install to the SSD is the best way to make sure trim is enabled in OS X. There are also other differences that a clean install helps with and cloning from HDD to SSD has some stability issues due to the different ways the drives work.
