cc quad to non

I have a 305, automatic, 87 formula computer controlled quad. Going to block off the egr, put an older HEI distributor, and put on an older non cc quad on the stock intake. Should I just unplug the ecm, or leave it plugged in and take the light out of the SES? (I'm assuming the SES will stay on). I guess the cruise control will not function if the ecm is unplugged? Haven't found on here if it will work or not. I did see that the tranny lock will not work. If I leave the ecm plugged will it cause any problems? Thanks!

Eclers corvette Sells a plug and play torque converter lock up switch.it's only $89 and you don't have to drop your tranny pan.It has the factory connectors.you can dial in what speed you want the converter to lock.It's so easy even a clutz like me can put it in.No cutting of wires just plug it in.

Re: cc quad to non

I literally just finished doing the same swap except I kept the EGR hooked up.

This is the switch you are talking about right?

I feel like I am going to need to order one. What happens when the trans does not receive a signal to lock up the converter? Does it just not go into overdrive or what?

Re: cc quad to non

that kit looks the goods. Steve, how long do you think it took to put in? and the difficulty rating on a 1/10 scale (1 being easy - 10 being near impossible)
