I just received the last piece of the puzzle today which was the 2800 PTC converter, along with the CK Valve Body Kit and Art Carr Deep sump pan. My friend and I are planning on installing the mentioned parts, but I need to know if there’s any TIPS or SUGGESTIONS about this install I should know before I begin? Or is it all self explanatory?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Follow the instructions to a T.
Put some white lithium grease on the convertor snout and input put shaft also a qt of atf in the convertor before install. I use type F now since dextron has been reformulated.
Make sure your mating surfaces are clean(brake clean) before installing gasket and pan and DONT USE RTV.

"I use type F now since dextron has been reformulated." Can you elaborate on this?

This is info from my trans builder (Lonnie Diers) that the Dex has been reformulated and the type f promotes better friction (frictions grab better) than the new dextron.
In the past (7-8 yrs ago) I blamed type f for causing TCC chatter but theTC clutch was going out and I didnt know it so I blamed the type f but it wasnt it.
FWIW if you go to the parts house and look at the back of Trick Shift racing trans fluid it says in the last line meets type F requirements.
Art Carr (Art himself not the company with his name now) has always recommended it as well.
As far as VI, pour point, detergency, flash point, molecular make up..I havent a idea on the comparison.
I even think it was a bit of change cheaper
