Hello!
The best way to connect it would be through the effects loop. Since the amp does not have it you only have the input guitar to connect. This is not a good ideia because you shoud not run efffects like reverb, chorus and delay before the preamp, just between pre and power of the amp. That is the goal of the effects loop. Time effects only in the loop, anyway...
You still can use some OD and wha, acoustic simulator (with clean settings on the amp) plus the tuner, from the GT8 into the amp input. You just need to set what you use before the amp input in the signal chain in GT8. Turn off delays, reverbs and so.

Good luck!
