Hard drive with A500 / kick 1.3 / wb 1.3

I recently purchased a GVP A500 HD+8 for my beloved old Amiga 500.
The previous owner had a 50 MB hard drive in there and no ram.

I found that installing Workbench 1.3 on it was more difficult than I had imagined. I still have the original WB 1.3 and Extras floppies I got in 1991, but there is no hd install icon?
The format icon seemed to be just for floppies. I ended up deleting each old WB2.0 directory from the hard drive separately, and copying the dirs and files from my wb1.3 floppy.

Now it boots and everything is ok, but I must ask.. Isn't there supposed to be some sort of hd installer and a hdtoolbox with wb1.3? I never had a hard drive back then, so I never looked for it until now.

Also.. What is the size limit for hard drives in kickstart 1.3? Can I put a 2 GB scsi disk in there?

And last but not least.. Where can I get some cheap 30 pin ram to put into it? Will that enable me to play most WHDLoad games, or do they require 2MB chip? :-)

Never mind about WHDLoad, I see that it requires kickstart 2.0.
Can I softkick it and reboot automatically, in some magical way?

Thank you very much, the future is looking bright.  :-D
I found some sites selling 30 pin memory. For example this one:

Can someone take a look at the specs for my scsi controller and tell me what ram to order?
