Hi, as a follow up, you may want to clarify what you mean by "matching". For the template and the T1 to be in rough alignment (same orientation), you can do as Donald suggested below, or try coregistration. A closer matching, so that regions in the original brain can be considered (well... ;) to correspond to regions in the template, is called spatial normalization. You will find loads of information on either procedure in the spm manual, the list's archive, and the online spm bibliography, which are the usual places to start.
