You may have a snag or two. My 87 uses a cable for the speedo. I believe 88 and up use the VSS for speed. Also, I am not 100% sure on the TCC switch. I believe it is the same 4 prong pig tail connection.

You bought an 87 700R4 for your 89 car, so why are you asking about an 83 trans?
82-84 models were the weaker failure-prone ones, and GM made some upgrades after 84. All these year models you're looking at still have the cable driven speedo, 1990 was the first year the Camaro had the VSS/electric speedo setup. If there is a plug configuration difference for the lockup, it can be rewired.
