>...but the 700r4 is whats got me in a run around. what needs to be done im shur the ecu controls the lock up i believe?
Here is one KIT that does it.
There are some even cheaper that are not much more than a vacuum switch and some wire. It depends on your skill level.

Re: anyone who is afraid of EFI-to-carb swap

I know that no one has posted here in a couple months but to anyone who sees this.. Earlier in the thread someone mentioned that the stock electric fuel pump runs out of gas at 240 hp. I have a Tbi that I'm converting to carb and I'm wondering if that statement is true when you install a regulator like the Holley or Mallory units that have been mentioned. It seems to be working out for everyone, but I'm planning to break the 240hp mark. So I'm wondering if the pump can go over that 240hp mark due to the lower fuel pressure needed by carb. Bit confused. Thanks
