is it worth the time and money?

Hey guys currently looking into swapping out my old 700r4 "died " as well as a LT1 cam I got for free into my 91 350 tpi GTA. Here's my questions
1.) When I replace the tranny should I go with the b&m shift kit or transco...leaning towards transco.
2.) With the lt1 cam, 1.6 Rockers, new springs, timing chain set, lifters, and possibly valves would a aftermarket chip work? Looking into jet stage 2 or an ed wright.
3.) Would that chip suffice as a tune or will I still have to get one?
4.) What gains should I expect if any? Worth the time and money?

Also car already has full exhaust. Alp shortys with 3" borla with no cat
Thanks in advance guys any input is appreciated! Trae
