does the tpi 700r4 kit you see in super chevy magazine come with everything you need?

Their kit includes everything you need to 'install' the 700-R4 (even a new rear mount) - but, it does not include a flex plate, the carb. linkage bracket or the shift plate detent and plate bezel for an overdrive trans.
The flex plate is eazy to find and under $100.oo, the carb. bracket is @$45.oo (from them) a rear yoke if need @$90.oo and the detent and bezel are available from Shiftworks or many of the classic part outlets.
I have purchased a couple of these kits for friends projects and all are working well.
TPI has a bunch of Show/Go options when you order their kits and they will advise you of them when you order. If you have any questions you can call them 800-373-RACE or try Jon McKean direct at 316-208-5030.
Good luck with your swap - read through all the 700-R4 and 200-4R post you can for lots of good background on these swaps.

ps; Almost forgot - when you call, ask if the special price is still in effect (@$1,499.oo)!
