Normally I say to let the guy who rebuilds it choose the parts for your needs. They usually know what works best. If you are going to attempt to rebuild it yourself, you will need normal hand tools and a few special tools that are transmission specific. If you know the power you intend to make, and the rpm that you will push it to, I can recommend some parts.

2 white accumulator springs

3 new accumulator pistons

If you plan to do high speed wide open throttle runs, a billet fairbanks 4th apply piston (servo) would not be a bad idea. Not nescessary, but something to consider.
