this is the only kit i found that has all the parts you have been saying to get

http://www.trutechtrans.com/700R4-Master-Builder-LV2-Complete-Kit-1987-1993.html

That's a damn good kit. But look at the price. Yes, that's alot of good **** in it, even the Sonnax 3-4 Release springs, Notice he names the BEAST, he also named the AC Delco 5 pinion planets, people who just say things like hardened sun shell, 5 pinion planets, they are selling you CHINA **** JUNK !!! The good trans guys KNOW the good **** and we all know 99% of the CHINA **** is just that, **** !!! Big names like Sonnax, Alto, Raysbestos, Borg Warner, AC Delco, when they name a name brand, it usually going to be good. The kits are high in price, so they name the parts to jutify the price. One thing you don't want, MORE IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER, .... DO NOT Upgrade to a 13 vane pump. If it's a 7, go to 10, if it's a 10 Vane, leave it at 10 Vane. With a 13 vane pump you have more vanes for higher pressure, BUT, that also means more strain on the stator and you have less meat between the vanes and you'll break it. Best to go with the 10 Vane pump and use bigger boost valves and you'll have plenty of pressure and not sacrifice strength in the pump.

ok so that kit and order the vette servo and better sun shell

Get this kit, same guy, FREE Shipping, it's $14 more but gives you the Alto 3-4 Power Pack. That's equal to the Z pak for your 3-4 clutch pack, then the Vette Servo, and the Beast, then you've addressed the 3 big upgrades.

Pull your trans apart, and see if you have the Beast or Vette Servo in it yet. It's been rebuilt before. If it was a good shop, chances are at least the Vette Servo was done already and a 50/50 chance the Beast is in it already.
