Just bought a 97 700r4-have questions-help!

I bought it from a junkyard who warrantied it for 3 months so I better get it in quick. They also had an 89 but I went with the 92 that used to be behind a 350 in a van. (My 68 truck has a 350) I am going to be replacing my Powerglide with it. This is a two wheel drive automatic tranny like my Powerglide. I know I need to get the hydraulic lock up kit but what other differences can I expect. The 700R4 has a short tail shaft from what I can tell so I am hoping for no driveshaft manipulation.

1. Will all of my linkage from the column to the tranny work? I know I have to change the indicator but is there any other column work?

2. Will I have to modify any cross-members?

3. The said it works and inspect their transmissions before sale - I paid $184 was that a good price?

On the way out of the junkyard was a 68 bed just sitting on the ground filled with junk. It had a bent up original tailgate but the reverse lights were intact so I asked him to throw the lights into the deal and he did.

Anybody with talent could fix that tailgate I think. Thanks for the help.
