This IS NOT a mod you install in your driveway. Do you have pressure gauges?
Depending on your automatic transmission experience I would be taking it to a good shop for install!

My concern is the tuning of the valvebody after the install. The pan may have to drop multiple times to get the transmission the way it needs to be.
A 12 speed automatic and a 47RE are two diffrent animals. If you are going to install it yourself make sure you have a way to watch line pressures to tune the transmission or you take a very LARGE risk of causing damage which would require a complete rebuild!
