Call me Gregg, I’ve got all the info. It’s the same thing I had to do for my Holley and 700r4, just a bracket setup for the Edelbrock. ---

i’ve used those brackets and they are ok but, i dropped a little money and got one of those tv made easy kits from [http://www.bowtieoverdrives.com/index.shtml](http://www.bowtieoverdrives.com/index.shtml) . it seems to work alot better for me. ---

don’t you need the electronic lockup to control the tranny I think painless wiring or b&m makes it :dunno: ---

have 2 of them from my monte ss setup, there are 2 styles 700-r4 like the 200-r4 there might be a 4 pin connector, if so you can disconnect, and drive with out it if you do mostly city, and race driving. That is the TCC soleid, long high trips will heat up the tranny, and get a bit worse gas milage. If it is not equip just worry about the kick down cable and adjust according to spec,WOT make sure the kick down cable is fully extended. no slack. I have 2 both universial for holley and edelbrock from CSI
