From the John's Cars website, here are a list of parts needed. Also, you will need a shortned driveshaft.Your V12 Quarterbreed kit features:
- block to transmission adaptor
- crankshaft/torque convertor adapters
- transmission crossmember and mount
- flywheel/convertor adaptor
- throttle pressure hookup
- shifter cable bracket and linkage
- speedometer necessities
- nuts, bolts, hardware
- Lock-It™ for the torque convertor
- 100% bolt-in, no welding (XJ models).
- freight paid in the continental USA
- my infamous instructions!

There was a thread here very recently describing the process.

I suspect the "T700" comes indirectly from nomenclature commonly used by GM prior to the introduction of the 700R4.
For a long time GM marketed their transmission as "Turbo Hydramatic". You had the Turbo Hydramatic 400, the Turbo Hydramatic 350, the Turbo Hydramatic 125, and so forth. It become common to abbreviate these as TH400, TH350. TH125, etc.
Somehow or the other the "TH" was shortened, by some, yet again to simply "T".
By the time the 700R4 was introduced I recall that GM had stopped using the "Turbo Hydramatic" description...which probably coincided with the decision to change the entire system of designations, where, for example, the TH400 became the 3L80.
