L31 conversion

[trlrider]

The problem is not the engine running badly, but the 700R4 not having the cable connected it cannot adjust pressures correctly and will soon burn up.
You will need a conversion for the cable on the 700R4 to sense throttle position.
I believe there is a kit available to do this, but my brain is pretty much fried at the moment and cannot remember the supplier.

The throttle body that came with the intake manifold has a stud for the kickdown cable. I was just going to get a bracket for it and put it on haha

If you have not already, you can use the pcm for TCC lock-up, there are provisions for this in several .bins. Or you can switch in for manual lock-up in it. My 700R4 has a kit that comes from Monster Transmissions. When the switch is on, the TC will only lock-up in 4th gear. With the switch off it does not lock at all.
