Master O/H kit w/clutches, steels, seals, gaskets. And a new modulator valve, filter, and bushing kit. And of course, the torque converter. You may want to go ahead and get a new intermediate(2nd gear/passing gear) band, tho this band is rarely burnt.
Would recommend replacing the intermediate sprag assembly, and the outer race, with HD parts.
If the trans is only slipping, there should be no major hard part damage, but the pumps on 350s this age will have wear. Good news is, you can buy brand new 350 pumps for less than $50.(here)

If I remember correctly, you are in the UK/England area? There are suppliers there...P/M me with some info, and I'll look for a few in your area.Adams' Apple2007-03-06 06:24:50
